Do the 3 years spent in residency training in an HPSA/MUA area be counted towards the five years required for NIW? The residency training (3 years) and subsequent job (2 years) were on H1B visa in two different HPSA/MUA areas but not processed through NIW route. Can the NIW petition be filed now retrospectively for those years already worked in underserved areas? My current GC sponsoring job is in a University teaching hospital (job designation Assistant Professor) but obviously also involves treating patients. The PERM prevailing wage category was teacher/ Professor but job description included patient care. Can the job be changed to that involving only patient care (no teaching) and still be considered same/ similar? How about a job (with patient care only & no teaching) in a private practice (as opposed to hospital employee)?

FAQs: EB-1C (International Managers and Executives): Eligibility for H-1B managers in the USA
Rajiv and Diane are the best immigration lawyers I've worked with in my 12 years in the US, across the several firms I've worked with over the years. I worked with them on my O-1 visa. Processing timeline delays with my PERM application nearly threatened my work authorization in the US. Rajiv and Diane worked on a tight timeline expeditiously not only to get my O-1 visa approved but also to get my green card approved, all within 6 months. This is the fastest timeline I have seen - they are a great team!
