"We would end up sending over all of the
documents to the attorneys via mail. The attorneys
preferred to speak directly to us and we would
relay the message, rather than the attorneys
speaking directly with the individuals. We knew
Envoy would help us save time."

Favorite Envoy Benefits
Foreign national accounts
"It's nice that the employees can manage their own
application directly in the platform, but there's still one
centralized person who oversees the process and dictates
what can or cannot be processed or sponsored."
Employee Communication Center access
"What's great about Envoy is that the employees can reach
out to the attorneys with their own questions to make sure
everything is on track. I can also track and reference all
of the communication happening between the users,
or simply use the platform to reach out to a Envoy
representative."
Complete confidentiality
"Being able to ask questions confidentially on the employer
side without the individual seeing the communication is a
great plus. This helps in situations where we are managing
multiple sponsorships or asking general questions and only
want our internal group to see the communication."
Easy-to-understand immigration policy updates
"Envoy helps by explaining immigration policy changes
in an easier, clearer way than the U.S. Citizenship and
Immigration Services bulletin."
Fast response times
"With the Communication Center, I have a place that I
can ask a question and won't have to wait long for the
response or be charged by the hour. By using VISANOW,
the response time has significantly decreased as well as
the cost. With a traditional lawyer, I was getting charged for
every minute."
