Success in requesting a National Interest Exception for a client with a valid H-1 visa
In this case we assisted a client whose employee, with a valid H-1 visa stamped in this passport, traveled outside the U.S. and was unable to return due to the COVID 19 travel restrictions. We prepared a comprehensive letter with details about the petitioning employer, the specific project that the employee would be assigned to, and the urgency of the employee’s presence in the U.S., to the consulate requesting consideration under the National Interest Exception (NIE) for business travel to the U.S. for vital support of the U.S.
I have recently filed for H1B 8th year extension under premium processing and I got the approval in a week. Rajiv, Fran & Anna did excellent work throughout the process. I really appreciate Rajiv for his attention to detail and his thought process before filing the application. He even submitted some documents even before CIS want to think about it. Thanks again Fran and Rajiv.
