Pending last year, refiled and approved this year
Background
The client has a graduate background in business analytics and works in a data-driven marketing role in a non-traditional consulting industry. After being selected the previous year, the H-1B had remained pending.
Challenges
A business analytics graduate doing marketing data analysis in a non-traditional consulting industry faces easy challenges to the position's compliance and necessity.
Strategy
Rather than dwelling on last year's pending petition, we refiled directly after this year's selection, went deep into the job duties to show the company's core need for a data-driven marketing position, and used premium processing.
Outcome
Approved within 18 days (filed 06/05/2026 · approved 06/23/2026).
