CASE: H-1B Extension
PETITIONER: Culture Center
BENEFICIARY: Chinese Assistant Program Development Director
Our client is a Culture Center in Ohio that offers after-school and weekend education programs for children and young students in the Greater Cleveland area. They contacted our office in April to seek legal assistance from our office for their foreign employee’s H-1B Extension. The beneficiary is a Chinese who obtained her Bachelor’s Degree in Economics in China and also a MBA degree in the United States. The proffered position for the Beneficiary is an Assistant Program Development Director which we argued qualified as a specialty occupation. She has been working for the Petitioner for the last three years on a valid H-1B visa.
After retention, our office filed the H-1B visa petition with various supporting documents on April 22, 2016 via premium processing. Eventually, without any RFE, our client’s H-1B application was approved on April 28, 2016. Now the Beneficiary can work for the Petitioner until 2019.
