Of the business based visas she has applied for, she has covered novel issues including applying for a cap-subject H1B visa concurrent to a cap-exempt H1B (after H1B master’s and non-master’s numbers were exhausted) and arguing successfully for a university affiliation for an otherwise cap-subject and previously denied petitioner.

In a challenging case, Susan was able to petition for a change of status to L-1A from L-1B one the eve of the 5th year L-1B cap without any government requests for further evidence.
