Episode 8: EB-1 for Physicians

An EB-1B visa petition can be very intimidating, especially for scholars, professors, and researchers still early in their careers. However, the category’s ambiguous requirements can be used to the benefit of a foreign national early in their career. In this episode, Klasko EB-1 attorneys Anu Nair, Allie Dempsey, and Nigel James discuss how they would advise clients on strengthening their cases for success when applying for an EB-1B Outstanding Researcher or Professor.

Klasko’s distinguished EB-1 team discusses:
What is an EB-1B and who is eligible?
What are the criteria and requirements?
How can professors use their teaching experience?
How can researchers use their experience?
What documents can be used for evidence?
Are there any alternatives to an EB-1B?

The Klasko EB-1 team has extensive experience handling EB-1B petitions for professors, researchers, and scholars. For more information on this topic, read Nigel’s recent blog:

Episode 32:  EB-1B for Early-Career Scholars

With a large wave of layoffs reported in November 2022, many H-1B visa holders worry about what their next steps should be. In this podcast episode, Anu Nair speaks with partner Bill Stock and senior associate Maria Mihaylova to discuss the potential impact of recent layoffs occurring in the different industries and how they affect H-1B employees.

As concerns rise for H-1B employees, Klasko attorneys address these pressing questions on what you need to know in the case of an H-1B layoff.
How long can an H-1B worker remain in the U.S. once they have been laid off?
What happens if a new H-1B employer is found within the grace period?
Is a change of status an option during the grace period?
If unable to find a new employer within the grace period, what will be the cost of a return trip home?
Are F-1, O-1, or J-1 visas an option to return to the U.S.?
Do you get to keep your priority date if your previous employer filed your I-140 petition?
Can you still get a green card approved if you no longer have a job offer with the I-140 employer?
What are some self-sponsor options for people who are not able to find a petitioning employer?

Episode 31: H-1B Layoff Information for Employees

Ron Klasko and Dan Lundy, both partners with Klasko Immigration Law Partners, talk with Anu Nair about a major litigation victory on which they were co-counsel. The litigation is significant because USCIS had put restrictions on the EB-5 regional center program that went beyond what Congress intended when it reinstated the program in March 2022, which would have killed the program for years.

Anu Nair asks Ron Klasko and Dan Lundy to explain the importance and the details of the settlement and what it means for regional centers and investors moving forward:
Why was the litigation necessary to reopen the program?
What are the terms of the litigation settlement?
Are all the regional centers active again?
What is the difference between the forms I-956 and the I-956F?
What documents can investors use now to file their petitions?
What is the likelihood of issues with regional center recertification?
Will there be any deference given to previously approved regional centers and projects?
What happens to investors if their regional centers don’t continue in the program?
What more communication will the EB-5 industry have with USCIS in the future?

Thank you to  our clients, who were plaintiffs in this litigation: EB-5 Capital, CanAm Enterprises, Civitas Capital Group, Golden Gate Global, Pine State Regional Center, and IIUSA. Without their intervention, the EB-5 regional center program would still be inactive today.
