Description
Our office is highly experienced in developing these cases in the meticulous manner that is required. The office spends significant time working with individual clients to develop unique qualifications of the individual and to ensure that they are put into letters that are presented. We also ensure that the petitioner collects as much of the corroborating evidence as is possible.
Physicians are subject to a number of unique provisions relating to their eligibility for visa issuance. Also because of the nature of U.S. licensing for medical doctors, physicians often obtain either J-1 visas or H-1B visas for substantial periods of time before they can actually practice medicine in the U.S. This in itself may impose special burdens on the physicians' desire to be in the U.S. beyond training. At SJA we have unique experience in developing strategies and preparing petitions for the BCIS to meet the physicians' needs.
Our office is highly experienced in preparing H-1B visa petitions both for clinical and non-clinical responsibilities. We are also highly experienced in dealing with problems with physicians who approach their sixth year of H-1B eligibility and have implemented a number of strategies to extend H-1s for seven years and beyond. We also have expertise in alternatives for the H-1 physician reaching his final year of H-1B eligibility including change applications to O-1, EB-1, and NIW petitions with simultaneous filing of adjustment of status.
