Mexican Scientific Technicians in Aviation qualify for this visa. The candidate must have graduated from a technical school, have a diploma or certification with at least 2 years of practical experience.

H-1B1 Visa for Chileans

This program provides 5400 visas for Chile nationals for specialty occupations requiring theoretical and practical application of a body of specialized knowledge in the fields of engineering, mathematics, physical science among many others. Aircraft mechanic positions perfectly qualify under this program. According to the U.S. Department of State, the number of visas for Chileans approved per year almost never reach the 5400 limit.

E-3 Visa for Australians

This program was created under a free trade agreement between the U.S. and Australia with 10500 available visas per year. This is also a visa that never reaches its limits. The U.S. employers that hire skilled aviation technicians often fall into the “skilled worker” category.

Current Employment Challenges

Current Employment Challenges Despite the essential nature of their work, aviation technicians face several employment challenges. One of the primary issues is a significant skills gap. As the baby boomer generation retires, the industry struggles to replace these experienced workers with equally skilled candidates. Additionally, technical training programs often lack the capacity to meet industry demands due to funding constraints and limited enrollment.

The Need for International Aviation Technicians

To address the labor shortage, the U.S. aviation industry has increasingly turned to international talent. Recruiting skilled technicians from abroad can help fill the gap quickly and effectively. However, hiring foreign workers requires navigating the U.S. immigration system, particularly working visa programs such as the H-1B, EB-3, and TN visas.
