Case management from intake through approval
We manage filings, renewals, deadlines, and employee communication from intake through approval. HR sees every next step in one place.
Global support
Coordinate cases across supported destinations through one team and one platform.
Hands-on partnership with HR
Employees can ask our team about cases, travel, moves, and interviews. HR stays informed without relaying every message.
Built for scale
Add one sponsored employee or open an office in a new country. The same team and workflows support both.
Real-time dashboards
HR, employees, and executives can see case status, deadlines, and required actions in real time.
Built-in compliance safeguards
Deadline tracking and partner-attorney review help HR identify required actions. Employers remain responsible for accurate information and their applicable obligations.
How we compare
Use these criteria to compare service scope. Ask each provider to demonstrate its capabilities and confirm responsibilities in writing; a provider category alone does not establish what is included.

Corporate immigration questions from HR teams
Clear answers to the questions HR teams ask us most.
How is WayLit different from a law firm?
WayLit coordinates the immigration program through case tracking, document workflows, and employee communication. Partner immigration attorneys provide legal representation, advice, and filing work within the engagement scope. HR can see case status, deadlines, and assigned responsibilities in the platform.
Does WayLit support immigration outside the U.S.?
Yes. WayLit supports employer-sponsored immigration across North America, Europe, Asia, and Australia. HR teams manage their country programs through one platform and one service team.
How long does it take to get started?
The team first reviews your program, active cases, required information, and provider handover. Your onboarding plan then sets the owners, milestones, and timing for configuring workflows and starting service.
What kind of human support do we get?
Case managers and an HR success partner coordinate updates and employee questions, with partner immigration attorneys handling legal guidance. Confirm the communication channels, business hours, response commitments, and urgent escalation process in your service scope.
Who is WayLit best suited for?
WayLit works with startups, mid-sized companies, and global enterprises that sponsor employees and want HR to spend less time coordinating immigration.
How much work will transferring to WayLit require from me?
HR provides the employee roster, company information, sponsorship approvals, and access to the relevant case records. WayLit coordinates the handover and case review with the current provider and partner attorneys. The effort and timing depend on record completeness, active deadlines, and the agreed service scope.
What benefits can we expect?
HR gets a shared view of cases, deadlines, and assigned tasks. The case team coordinates document requests and employee updates, helping HR identify the decisions and employer actions that still need its attention.
Should we switch providers if we are not actively hiring?
It can still be a good time to switch. Between hiring cycles, HR needs to track renewals, maintain records, support employees, and prepare for policy changes or audits. Moving now gives your team time to organize the program before hiring picks up.
Will we have legal representation?
Partner immigration attorneys provide legal representation and advice within the agreed engagement scope. Confirm the responsible attorney, covered work, and escalation process when your program or case begins.
Can I talk directly to the attorneys representing us?
Yes. You can contact your attorneys by email or schedule a call when you need legal guidance or help with an escalation. Your HR success partner coordinates communication and keeps the appropriate people informed.
