ANNOUNCEMENT AT AILA CONFERENCE, SAN FRANCISCO, CALIFORNIA 2018: H-1B FOIA LITIGATION INITIATED

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE- RIDGEWOOD, New Jersey – Lawyers at the NPZ Law Group continue to be actively involved in the The American Immigration Lawyer’s Association (AILA) both at a State and National Level.

This week, David Nachman, Esq. and Snehal Batra, Esq. from the NPZ Law Group are attending the national immigration lawyers conference in San Francisco California.

It was announced there that AILA has filed challenges to U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services’ (USCIS) failure to respond to two FOIA requests asking for records that would explain increased scrutiny and denials of H-1B petitions.

We are concerned that USCIS had adopted new adjudication standards without informing the public. The requests ask for records relating to USCIS’s consideration of evidence demonstrating an occupation’s “prevailing wage,” as well as records relating to USCIS’s determination of whether a position is a “specialty occupation.”

If you should have any questions or need more information about the ways in which the U.S. Immigration and Nationality Laws may impact you, your family, your friends or your colleagues, please contact the U.S. Immigration and Nationality Lawyers at the NPZ Law Group – VISASERVE – U.S. Immigration and Nationality Lawyers by e-mailing us at info@visaserve.com or by calling us at 201-670-0006 (x107).
