H-1B Visa Transfer Approval for School District Petitioner in Gallina New Mexico and Filipina High School Teacher

CASE: H-1B Visa Petition – Change in Employer
PETITIONER:  Public School District in Gallina, NM
BENEFICIARY: Filipina High School Teacher

 

Our client is a Public School District in Gallina, NM. They contacted our office in November 2023 to seek assistance from our office for their foreign employee’s H-1B transfer petition. The position for the Beneficiary is a High School Teacher which qualifies as a specialty occupation because the requirements for this position are a Bachelor’s Degree in Secondary Education or its equivalent.  The Beneficiary has worked for her previous employer under H-1B status before she got this job.  

 

Once retained, our office filed the H-1B petition with various supporting documents via regular processing service on January 2, 2024. Our client’s H-1B was approved on March 8, 2024.  Her H-1B is good until January 1, 2027.
