The client has a degree in an architecture-related field, and the LCA occupation was Interior Designer. The employer is in the architectural design industry. When uncertainty arose at the original company, the client promptly started an H-1B transfer.

The departure from the original company and the start at the new company had to be timed precisely to avoid a gap in status (grace period).

We assessed the feasibility of the transfer, planned the timeline for leaving and starting, prepared a complete petition, and kept following the case status.

The client began working for the new employer on the strength of the receipt notice, with no period of unemployment, and the petition was ultimately approved (filed 07/16/2025 · approved 06/02/2026).
