BBA Webinar:

Thursday, April 16, 2020 12:00 PM to 1:00 PM Via Zoom

REGISTER HERE

This session will provide practical tips on approaching out-of-the-box H-1B petitions, including:   

  • How to select the "best" SOC code in a multi-disciplinary world where nothing truly fits.

  • Consider when to get a combination degree/work experience evaluation to create a different, better matching degree field.

  • Crafting a job description which align with the SOC code with a future RFE in mind.

  • Using the OOH to your advantage and when to argue it is not appropriate to apply.

  • Samples of what additional evidence to include in the initial petition (with minimal effort) to avoid an RFE.

  • Samples of what to prepare for an RFE response for those cases you just cannot avoid it (job charts, expert letter template, etc.).

By using real-world case examples and supplying some take-home samples, attendees will be better equipped with that tool box of ideas and materials to tackle their next tricky H-1B.  

Speakers: Mary E. Walsh, Iandoli Desai & Cronin P.C.
