Dear Clients and Colleagues: Once again, we anticipate the H-1B quota to be over, on April 1, 2009, the first day the quota opens for the Fiscal Year. If you have H-1B filing requirements that need to be met, and you have not initiated the H-1B filing process, your time may be running out. The competition for an H-1B visa has never been so fierce. In order to properly prepare and file an approvable H-1B petition, a sufficient amount of time must be allowed to gather and review the necessary documents and to address any legal issues that may arise. There are many steps to be taken before an H-1B petition may be properly filed. Whilst we must all accept the limitation in visa numbers, preparation and presentation play a key part towards an approvable H-1B petition and many times this is overlooked. An approved H-1B petition is only the first step in the H-1B process. The second and more important step is H-1B visa processing through the Consulates overseas. From our experience, if an H-1B petition is properly prepared and filed, the issuance of consulate queries are minimized to a large extent. Please find attached below our legal fees for H-1B filing and GC Processing. � For all our corporate clients we provide an exceptional turnaround time for preparation of the petitions with a view to minimize the time of the business owners to spend talking with the attorneys and their staff � Our customized legal software helps Petitioners to view and access the status of each case assigned to our law firm for representation � Our firm works very closely with the educational evaluation companies and even at this time of huge rush ensure that we receive the timely evaluations for our clients � Our legal fee for H-1B filing also includes any further legal work to be carried out in response to a Request for Evidence (RFE), if required. � Our firm does not consider our work on H-1B petitions complete, even after we receive the approval notice.
