2024 Summary of H-1B Work Visa and EB Petitions for Mental Health Professionals
In the first half of 2024, USCIS implemented several adjustments to H-1B work visa and EB2 immigration petition fees and processing procedures. While USCIS filing fees increased overall, filing fees for nonprofit mental health organizations and professionals remained unchanged. Additionally, though certain premium processing timelines were extended from 15 calendar days to 45 business days, nonprofit mental health organizations continued to benefit from the shorter processing times for expedited petitions.
The mental health field encompasses a wide range of professionals, including clinical psychologists, psychiatrists, registered nurses, social workers, counselors, and therapists. Among therapists, there are further specializations such as art therapists, music therapists, and occupational therapists.
Notably, USCIS granted special considerations to non-profit organizations affiliated with academic institutions to provide internships and training in the mental health profession. These organizations are exempt from the annual H-1B lottery, creating more employment opportunities for professionals in the mental health field. Another positive development in 2024 for mental health professionals applying for H-1B visas is that if premium processing is requested, their spouses’ accompanying H-4 visa and Employment Authorization Document applications can also be approved within the reasonable time frame of the premium process.
However, mental health professionals who have received approval for EB2 immigration petitions, as well as nurses approved under EB3, must still wait in line for green card priority dates along with other applicants in the same category.
Overall, under the current immigration policies, work visa and immigration petitions for mental health professionals remain relatively smooth. Looking ahead, barring major immigration policy changes from the new Trump administration, it is anticipated that work visa and immigration petitions in the mental health field will remain relatively stable in the foreseeable future.
2024年上半年，美国移民局对签证和移民申请的费用及审理流程进行了一些调整。虽然申请费有所上涨，但对于非营利性精神健康机构而言，相关费用仍基本保持不变。此外，虽然某些加急审理的周期有所延长，但非营利性精神健康机构的工作签证和移民申请的加急申请仍可享受较短的15天处理时间。如果精神健康专业人士在申请H-1B时申请加急审理，其配偶同时递交的H-4签证申请和EAD工作许可也能在加急的合理期限内顺利获得批准。
精神健康领域专业人士众多，主要包括临床心理学家、精神科医生、注册护士、社会工作者、咨询师、治疗师等。其中，治疗师类别又可细分为艺术治疗师、音乐治疗师、作业治疗师等。
值得注意的是，移民局对于与学术机构合作提供精神健康专业领域实习培训的非营利性机构，在H-1B工作签证名额方面给予了特殊考虑，无需参加年度抽签。这为精神健康领域的专业人士提供了更多的就业机会。同时，如果精神健康专业人士在申请H-1B时选择加急审理，其配偶同时递交的H-4签证申请及EAD工作许可也可以在加急审理的合理时限内同步顺利获得批准。
然而，已经获得EB2类别移民申请批准的精神健康领域专业人士，以及获得EB3类别移民申请批准的护士，仍需与同类别其他申请人一同排队等待绿卡排期。
总体而言， 在当前的移民政策下，精神健康类专业人士的签证和移民申请仍相对较为顺利。特别是对于非营利性精神健康机构和与学术机构合作的机构，移民局提供了更多的支持。
展望未来， 如果没有重大的移民政策变革，预计未来一段时间内，精神健康领域的工作签证和移民申请仍将保持相对稳定的状态。
Approval of EB-1C Petition for Multinational Executive!
H&Z is thrilled to announce another successful EB-1C petition for a multinational commodity trading company executive stationed in the U.S. This petition was approved by USCIS in just two months, without any requests for additional evidence.
The EB-1 category (which includes both noncitizens of extraordinary ability and multinational executives) has long been regarded as the "fast track" for employment-based immigration. However, recent visa bulletins show that the green card wait times for Chinese-born applicants in the EB-1 category have been slow.
How to address green card backlogs? Consider L-1A to H-1B:
Many multinational executives hold L-1A work visas while waiting for their EB-1C green cards. Although L-1A visas can be renewed, the maximum validity period is seven years. If the priority date of the EB-1C immigrant visa does not become current within the validity period of the L-1A visa, the executive may face the risk of departure. In contrast, the H-1B visa offers greater flexibility: The initial validity period of an H-1B petition is three years, which can be extended. After six years, as long as 365 days have elapsed since the filing of the EB-1C petition, the H-1B visa can be renewed annually until the green card is obtained.
跨国公司高管移民申请（EB-1C）再传捷报！
近日，H&Z成功代理了一位跨国商品贸易公司驻美高管的EB-1C申请，在短短两个月内即获美国移民局批准，且全程无需补件。
EB-1类别（包括杰出人才和跨国公司高管）一向誉为职业移民中的“快车道”。然而，近期数据显示，中国出生的申请人在EB-1类别的绿卡排期进展缓慢。
如何应对绿卡排期？或许可以考虑L-1A转H-1B：许多跨国公司高管在等待EB-1C的绿卡期间持有L-1A工作签证。尽管L-1A签证可续签，但最长有效期不得超过7年。绿卡排期若未在L-1A签证的有效期内完成，高管申请人可能面临离境风险。相比之下， H-1B签证则提供了更大的灵活性：H-1B的初始有效期为三年，可续签至六年。六年期满后，如果EB-1C的绿卡排期仍未到，H-1B签证仍可每年续签一次，直至获得绿卡。
After the investor received a Notice of Intent to Deny (NOID) from USCIS regarding their EB-5 direct investment project, H&Z swiftly accepted the case and submitted a response within 30 days, successfully securing the approval of the I-829 petition. This undoubtedly affirms the investor’s hard work over the past ten years.
In real business operations, there are often gaps between company practices and perfect compliance standards. During random audits of EB-5 cases, USCIS tends to focus on identifying suspicious elements: no signage at the business premises, job creation through payroll rather than actual business operations, non-compliant intercompany lending, or legal disputes between business partners rehashing old grievances. These issues often lead USCIS to question the authenticity of the EB-5 investment.
However, the key point is whether, despite any imperfections in the operational details, the investor truly made an EB-5 investment and created jobs. In response to the NOID, H&Z submitted a 15-page reply along with over 6,000 pages of supporting evidence and successfully obtained the I-829 approval in less than two months. Hard work pays off, and the EB-5 investor’s dedication has finally been rewarded!
在EB-5直接投资的投资人收到移民局对I-829的驳回意向书后，H&Z接受委托并在30天内迅速提交了答复，成功为当事人赢得了I-829批准，这也是对当事人十年来辛勤付出的认可。
在实际经营中，公司与完美合规要求之间往往存在差距。移民局在EB-5随机抽查中常常快意于发现问题：如经营场所无标识、创造就业机会的实体仅发工资而不参与实际经营、公司间存在不完全合规的借贷行为，或合作股东之间存在法律纠纷。这些问题往往导致移民局对EB-5投资的真实性产生怀疑。
然而，关键在于：尽管操作细节可能存在不完美之处，投资人是否真正进行了EB-5投资并创造了就业机会才是核心。面对驳回意向书，H&Z提交了15页的答复和6000多页证据，并在不到两个月内成功获得了I-829批准。当事人的辛勤付出最终得到了回报！
After five months of waiting, H&Z is thrilled to announce the approval of our L-1B visa application for our client, a U.S. commodity trader. The visa was granted without any request for additional evidence. The H-1B and L-1B visas are often part of a two-step strategy for securing U.S. work authorization. If the H-1B lottery is unsuccessful, the L-1B visa can serve as a valuable backup option.
Unlike the L-1A visa, which focuses on managerial responsibilities, the L-1B visa emphasizes the applicant's specialized knowledge of the company's products or services. Due to the stringent requirements for proving this "uniqueness," the L-1B application process is often more complex than the H-1B. While many may qualify for the L-1A visa, those eligible for the L-1B are relatively rare.
Thus, the successful approval of this L-1B visa is a cause for celebration.
经过五个月，H&Z终于等到了跨国专业人才（L-1B）签证申请的好消息：美国商品交易商客户的L-1B申请不需补件，直接获得批准。H-1B和L-1B都是工作签证，通常被视为两步走的策略，如果H-1B抽签落选，L-1B可以成为额外的保障。
与注重管理职责的跨国高管（L-1A）签证相比，L-1B 对申请人的专业技能要求更高，申请人需要对公司的产品或服务具备特有的知识和经验。由于移民法对这种“特有”性要求较高，L-1B的申请难度往往远大于H-1B。同时，虽然符合跨国高管(L-1A)条件的申请人较为常见，但能够获得移民局认可的跨国专业人才(L-1B)却相对稀缺。
此次L-1B的顺利获批，无疑是令人振奋的喜讯。
One of H&Z’s L-1A petitions after USCIS’s April fee increase has been approved. While adjudication itself took just three business days, USCIS encountered delays confirming the required filing fees. This highlights how the fee hike impacts not just application costs but also USCIS’s internal efficiency. Planning ahead will mitigate potential delays from USCIS and ensure uninterrupted legal status.
The approved L-1A petition pertains to a senior executive at one of H&Z’s multinational technology company clients.
本次获得批准的是一家跨国技术公司的驻美高管。
We are pleased to announce that we have successfully secured USCIS's EB-1A immigration approval for our client, a documentary director and cinematographer who has demonstrated extraordinary ability through the creation of top-quality documentaries for Nippon Hoso Kyokai (NHK), China Central Television (CCTV), and National Geographic. This documentary cinematographer explores remote mountains for nature shots, documents archaeological sites in deserts, and captures genuine moments with ordinary people and children. At H&Z, our mission as immigration lawyers is to represent such talented individuals in realizing their immigration plans for themselves, their children, and their families.

本周，纽约市市长亚当斯宣布了新措施，将流浪街头的严重心理病患者送往医院，帮助他们接受治疗。心理疾病的诊断、咨询和治疗是一个高度专业化的领域，美国心理健康专业人才严重短缺，迫切需要在美国接受过相关教育的外国人来弥补这一缺口。H-1B工作签证为获得相关专业硕士学位的毕业生提供了这样的机会。
自2020年初新冠爆发至今，胡彦萍律师已经为心理疾病领域的诊断、咨询和治疗专业人员提交了120多例H-1B工作签证申请，迄今全部获得批准。胡律师申请的相关H-1B签证涉及以下类别：
H&Z reinstated consular processing of approved Form I-130 petition that had been terminated because of no action for one calendar year
Y. Sarah Hu recently received approval from Guangzhou consulate that reinstated a client’s terminated Form I-130 petition. The consulate had terminated the client’s family immigrant visa processing because the client had failed to take further action on an approved Form I-130 petition during one calendar year. The request for reinstatement was supported by strong evidence that such failure was due to circumstances beyond the client’s control. The request was approved in 3 days.
本所的当事人正是因为防疫、出行和工作等多方原因在整一年的时间内未能与领馆联系下一步的面试，导致领馆撤销移民局已经批准的I-130决定，而领馆程序立即中止。

Sanda, sometimes called Sanshou or Lei Tai, is a contact sport that has similarities to Chinese boxing, Chinese wrestling, Shuai Chiao and other Chinese grappling techniques such as Qin Na.

EB-1A Petition by Diabetes Doctor and Endocrinologist of Extraordinary Ability Approved without RFE
H&Z received the USCIS's approval for an EB-1A immigrant petition by a Chinese female doctor of extraordinary ability in the field of diabetes and endocrinology. The petitioner, from a Chinese Jiangxi hospital, has been represented by Y. Sarah Hu, and the green card petition was approved by the USCIS without any additional evidence request.
The EB-1A extraordinary ability classification is intended for people who are recognized as being at the very top of their field. To establish eligibility, a petitioner must demonstrate sustained national or international acclaim and that his/her achievements have been recognized in the field of their expertise. The extraordinary ability classification is not expected to change in the Trump administration’s immigration reform.
申请人在得知杰出人才获得批准的消息后，仍不敢相信，“真的不需要补材料吗？”“谢谢您！非常感谢！您太厉害了！”“拿到了[绿卡]，就又想着去美国，一家人在一起。”
H-1B petition for change of employer approved 8 months after filling for regular processing
It has taken eight months under regular processing but the H-1B petition for change of employer by our client, one of New York City’s leading providers of mental health services, has been approved without any questions asked.
Thanks to premium processing, a case decision is generally issued within approximately 15 days after filing. But for an H-1B petition for change of employer, premium processing that involves an additional fee of $1225 is less frequently used bas a practical matter because under H-1B portability rules a new employer of the so-called “Change of Employer” H-1B filing will be permitted to place an employee on payroll as of the date of filing of the H-1B petition for change of employer with USCIS, rather than having to await approval of the petition, if the employee has maintained his/her H-1B employment with the current H-1B sponsor up until the date on which the new employer’s petition has been received by USCIS.
Although we are still in early February 2017, it is not too early to start planning and preparing for the H-1B cap filings for fiscal year 2018, which begins October 1, 2017. Demand for the H-1B visa has steadily increased over the years, and in 2016, only one third of the H-1B petitions were selected in the lottery which took place on April 1, 2016. Employers should expect this trend to continue and should be prepared to file their H-1B petitions on the earliest possible date, which is April 3, 2017 – April 1, 2017 falls on a Saturday.
The client is represented by H&Z’s founding partner Y. Sarah Hu.
Lawyering in a pro bono matter made a difference in approval of clients’ emergency advance parole applications as DACA recipients
The USCIS approved H&Z’s client, a Chinese trading company’s petition to transfer its chief executive officer to its newly opened U.S. office. The trading company has been engaged in the import and export of general merchandise for over ten years and has recorded an annual sale, most recently, of 6.5 million dollars. With intracompany transferee (L-1A) status, the executive will lead the company’s efforts in expanding its business in the United States. Y. Sarah Hu, Esq. of H&Z represented the client in connection with the filing of the intracompany transferee (L-1A) petition and the formation, legal compliance and trademark protection of the new business. Nancy Wan, Esq. of H&Z’s Virginia office advised the client regarding Virginia laws. It took USCIS seven business days to approve the L-1A petition.
The immigration law regarding intracompany transferees is not expected to change under the Trump administration, as President-Elect Trump has opined that industry advances need more highly skilled foreign workers – "[W]e need talented people in this country."
义乌商品贸易公司总裁获得跨国公司高管L-1A签证
2016年12月7日，移民局批准了我所代理的浙江义乌小商品贸易公司总裁的跨国公司高管非移民申请（L-1A）。该公司总部设在浙江义乌，从事小商品贸易十多年，年收益650万美元以上。获得L-1A身份的总裁将致力于美国公司的业务扩展，他的两个孩子也得以顺利入学美国的公立学校。H&Z的胡彦萍律师代理了该公司的跨国公司高管申请以及新设公司的法律合规及商标保护事宜。H&Z的弗吉尼亚州办公司负责人万楠茜律师提供了弗吉尼亚相关的法律意见。该跨国高管申请七天之内即获批准。
因为川普总统一贯主张美国工业需要高端的外国人才，相信他不会对跨国公司高管这一类申请设置额外的障碍。
News Show Host's Extraordinary Ability Petition for Green Card Approved
Earlier this morning, H&Z received the USCIS's approval for a Chinese radio talk show host's I-140 petition as an alien of extraordinary ability. The radio personality “is a paragon of the passionate host archetype, all the more because he himself is interested in recording, reporting and broadcasting everything new around him.” The client has been represented by Y. Sarah Hu and his immigrant petition was approved by the USCIS within three business days.
The immigration law regarding aliens of extraordinary ability is not expected to change under the Trump administration, as President-Elect Trump has opined that industry advances need more highly skilled foreign workers – "[W]e need talented people in this country."
新闻直播主持人获得杰出人才(EB-1A)绿卡
本月初，中国广播直播主持人的杰出人才移民申请获得批准。该主持人曾获担任《北京新闻》《新闻大视野》《新闻2004》等中国年利润最高的广播电台的新闻直播节目的播音员、主持人、记者和编辑，是2014年度的中国金话筒获得者。胡彦萍律师荣幸代理了此项杰出人才申请，并在三天内获得移民局批准。
杰出人才申请是各类移民申请中最快得到绿卡的方式，但申请难度远远高于他类申请。川普时代杰出人才申请相关的法律似乎不会发生更大的调整，但随着他类移民申请的满员，杰出人才申请迟早也将经历绿卡名额供不应求的排期现象。
EB1A Petition Approved for Chinese News Editor of Extraordinary Ability
Without requesting any additional information (RFE), USCIS approved an I-140 extraordinary ability green card petition of a radio news reporter, editor and producer. The radio professional “has exceptional interviewing, editing, planning, directing, and producing skills. He works hard, and is an engaged intellectual with a burning hunger for new knowledge and Western principles.” The client was represented by H&Z's Y. Sarah Hu and the petition was approved by USCIS under six business days.
