TN to H-1B Change of Status
Description
The employer currently has a worker on a TN visa, and they are working on transitioning them to an H-1B visa since the worker was chosen in the lottery.
Strategy
File a change of status to H-1B
Challenges
The worker’s job description didn’t match any of the department of labor’s job codes. We had to include a legal argument proving that a degree was normally required for a worker in the “all other” category.
Outcome
The H-1B change of status was approved
