SUMMARY:H-1B Cap Season and Important Immigration Updates
DESCRIPTION:It is that time of year again\, when companies look to support existing employees and new hires in their application for H-1B. We have seen unprecedented changes in business immigration in the last few years\, and there is a strong likelihood of additional changes coming soon – including the Fairness for High Skilled Immigrants Act – all of which suggest maintaining stable non-immigrant status is an important part of any company’s immigration strategy. Join Managing Partner\, David Zaritzky Brown\, as he walked through what to expect for this upcoming H-1B Cap season and how our firm is processing applications. This is a special webinar that is specific to the H-1 Lottery/Cap Season for HR/Managers and employees involved in filing an H-1B this year. \nAdditionally\, David spent a few minutes providing key immigration updates related to recent moves by the Biden administration to undo many of the prior administration’s harmful and at times\, last ditch maneuvers to undermine our existing legal immigration structure. The core program was a quick 30 minutes and left ample time for Q&A. \nPlease Note: This Webinar covers similar subject matter as our previous presentations earlier in January\, however as there are a number of new developments there will be new information shared. We did our best to share it at the front of the presentation for those who wish to only hear the updates. \nRecording

SUMMARY:Did not Make the H-1 Cap? Let’s Talk Options\, and Other Updates in Business Immigration
DESCRIPTION:The H-1B Cap lottery ended on March 28th and those who were selected have a clear path forward. However\, based on stats we have seen\, we know more were not accepted than accepted and now employers and employees are grappling with the “what do we do?” question to ensure continued or future employment eligibility in the U.S. And as those who are dealing with immigration issues know\, our system is showing significant cracks in the foundations as cases are not timely processed and people encounter travel issues. In this session Managing Partner\, David Brown answered the “What do we do?” question and provided real actionable options for people who did not get accepted in the lottery. \nAdditionally\, David spent a few minutes providing key immigration updates related to recent moves by the Biden administration to undo many of the prior administration’s ill-advised policy changes. The core program was a 30-minutes presentation and left ample time for Q&A. \nRecording \n

SUMMARY:Employer's Guide to Employment-Based Green Cards
DESCRIPTION:With nonimmigrant visa status more difficult to obtain and maintain\, and forward movement in the Visa Bulletin\, there’s now increased pressure on employers to ensure their valued foreign-born professionals both don’t miss out on a Green Card or be at risk of not being able to renew their status. The only way to avoid some of the current issues with nonimmigrant processing is to offer a permanent solution through U.S. permanent residence. This material will give you the tools to understand how to best implement the Green Card process for at-risk employees and offer a stable long-term work opportunity for your client’s employees.
