A community college hired Margaret W. Wong & Associates LLC to file an H1B visa for an Indian citizen with a master’s degree, who was a college administrator. The H1B was approved and the immigration law firm was able to extend the H1B. During this time, the college went to another attorney to file a labor certification on behalf of their employee. Unfortunately, the labor certification was denied.
The college returned to Margaret W. Wong & Associates LLC and we filed a new labor certification. We responded to an audit from the Department of Labor and the labor certificate was approved. We then filed an I-140 petition in the EB2 category using premium processing and the petition was approved in ten days. While the individual waits for her priority date to become current, we ensure she has H1B status to continue her college administrative work.
