CASE: H-1B Extension
PETITIONER: Engineering Company
BENEFICIARY: Taiwanese Radio Frequency / Electrical Engineer
Our client is an engineering company that specializes in RFID (Radio Frequency Identification Technology) solutions. Our client’s office is located near Columbus, Ohio. They contacted our office in mid-June to seek legal assistance from our office for their foreign employee’s H-1B Extension. The beneficiary obtained his Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering in Taiwan and completed his Master’s program in the United States. The proffered position for the Beneficiary is a radio frequency / electrical engineer which we argued qualifies as a specialty occupation. He has been working for the Petitioner for the last three years on a valid H-1B visa.
After retention, our office filed the H-1B visa petition with various supporting documents on July 8, 2014 via regular processing. Eventually, without any RFE, our client’s H-1B extension was approved on August 28, 2014. Now the Beneficiary can continue for the Petitioner on an H-1B status until September 28, 2017.
