CASE: H-1B Visa Petition
PETITIONER: E-Commerce Merchandiser
BENEFICIARY: Korean Staff Accountant in Dallas, TX
Our client is an E-Commerce Merchandising company located in Dallas, Texas. They contacted our office in early March of this year to seek legal assistance for a possible H-1B petition for their foreign employee.
The beneficiary obtained her Bachelor’s degree in Business Administration / Accounting in South Korea and her Associate’s degree in the United States. The proffered position for the Beneficiary is a Staff Accountant which we argued qualifies as a specialty occupation.
Upon retention, our office prepared and eventually filed the H-1B visa petition with various supporting documents on March 31, 2014 via regular processing service. This H-1B petition was selected after the lottery. Our client’s H-1B application was approved on May 27, 2014.
