Handle immigration without being the one holding it together.
WayLit keeps cases moving, supports employees directly, and gives you clarity and structure without the constant follow-ups.
You carry the weight of immigration, even when it isn’t your full-time job.
You are expected to support employees, keep cases moving, track expirations, and prevent surprises — all while managing a full slate of People responsibilities. Traditional law firms rely on HRBPs to push every step forward, translate legal updates, and manage employee expectations.
Constant follow-ups
The burden to keep cases moving falls on you, and you end up chasing attorneys for answers, clarity, and predictability.
Emotional load
Employees turn to you for reassurance, clarity, and answers — even when you don't control processes or outcomes.
Scattered systems
Expirations, documents, and timelines scatter across tools, leaving HRBPs without a clear view of risk, spend, or what needs action.
Less scrambling. More partnering.
WayLit takes the admin load off your plate by automating updates, streamlining compliance, and keeping employees informed. So, you can focus on strategy, not chasing paperwork.
Clear visibility
One place to check timelines, status, expirations, and what needs action from you. No more digging through emails or asking attorneys for updates.
Fewer fire drills
We handle all follow-ups, case movement, and document reviews so you can stay focused on the business. HRBPs get dozens of hours back every month.
Employee confidence
Year-round, we answer support questions, analyze risks, check compliance, and provide travel guidance. Employees feel supported and less anxious.
Predictable operations
Automated reminders, renewal planning, and compliance monitoring so there are no surprises. HRBPs gain control.
"I don’t have to chase anyone anymore. If something needs to happen, it happens — and I finally trust the process. Our employees finally had visibility, and HR wasn’t stuck relaying updates between them and the lawyers."

Immigration FAQs for HR Business Partners
Practical answers to the questions HRBPs face most — so you can support employees confidently without getting stuck in legal jargon.
How is WayLit different from a law firm?
Law firms just file cases, leaving you to do the heavy lifting. WayLit manages the entire immigration function — combining experienced attorneys with a platform that gives HR visibility, automation, and employee support all in one place.
Can I talk directly to the attorneys representing us?
Absolutely. You’ll have direct access via email or scheduled calls whenever strategic input or escalation is needed. Your HR success partner coordinates communication so you stay informed without extra work.
How much work will transferring to WayLit be for me?
Very little. We handle data migration, active case reviews, and employee communications for you. You approve the plan — we execute it. Most teams are fully transitioned within two weeks without interrupting any ongoing cases.
How does WayLit’s platform actually reduce HR workload?
WayLit automates the admin that clogs HR time — reminders, document tracking, compliance checks, and task follow-ups — while our team of attorneys and case managers handle filings and employee questions. You get visibility without being the one chasing progress.
We’re not actively hiring — does it make sense to switch providers?
Yes. Immigration management isn’t just about active filings — it’s about keeping records compliant, renewals on track, and employees supported year-round.WayLit helps HR stay ready for hiring surges, policy changes, and audits — so when things pick up, you’re ahead instead of starting from scratch.

Every client works with dedicated attorneys, case managers, and an HR success partner. We respond to all tickets within five hours and support employees directly via email or video calls.With you always in the loop, always.
Can employees access the platform directly?

Does WayLit support immigration outside the U.S.?
Yes. WayLit supports global immigration across North America, Europe, and Asia — including the U.S., U.K., Canada, and more — all managed through one platform.
Can we integrate WayLit with our HRIS or ATS?
Yes. WayLit connects with major HR systems for data syncs on new hires, terminations, and status changes — eliminating double entry.
Does the platform replace our current law firm or work alongside it?
WayLit can do either. Most clients fully transition to WayLit’s legal network; some keep their existing counsel and use WayLit for visibility, compliance, and employee communication.
