Egyptian Doctor Green Card Success Story: Dr. Magby’s Journey

Egyptian Doctor Green Card Success Story

From 2018 onward, the Margaret W. Wong team in Cleveland worked with Dr. Magby, a gentle and well-mannered pediatrician who immigrated to the United States from Egypt. This Egyptian doctor green card success story began when we partnered with his clinic in Northeast Ohio to secure his H-1B visa in 2018.

Securing an H-1B Visa and Employment Sponsorship

After obtaining the H-1B visa, we moved forward with the employment-based green card process. Dr. Magby’s PERM was approved in April 2020, followed by an I-140 (Immigrant Petition for Alien Worker) in July 2020. Immediately after, we filed his I-485 (Application for Legal Permanent Residency) and secured an Employment Authorization Document (EAD), which we renewed as needed.

From PERM and I-140 Approval to Green Card

In 2020, Dr. Magby faced a difficult choice. He had promised to remain at the clinic that sponsored him, but a larger medical center offered him a higher salary. Leaving the clinic would violate H-1B terms, but the new employer had the resources to secure another visa. Additionally, his EAD and pending green card application allowed him to work elsewhere in pediatrics.

After careful consideration, Dr. Magby honored his commitment and stayed with the clinic, believing they needed him more. This decision reflected his integrity and dedication to his patients.
