EB-1A Approved for a Distinguished AI Researcher/Engineer YES!!!! EB-1A approved without a substantive RFE on the merits for a distinguished AI researcher and engineer working on one of the frontier models. This was a very strong case. The client had thousands of citations to his research and publications, including work published on arXiv, and we argued: ✅ Publications ✅ Leading and critical role ✅ Original significant contributions ✅ High compensation What was interesting: USCIS did not issue an RFE challenging the merits of the case. Instead, they issued an RFE requesting that the client complete biometrics to prove his identity. As soon as I saw this, I had a strong feeling that the case had already been approved on the merits. But of course, it was still nerve-wracking for the client because USCIS did not clearly explain what was happening. The case was subsequently approved. I have now heard of similar situations from others, and I recently had a consultation with an individual who received a similar biometrics request in connection with an I-140. I wonder if this is becoming the new normal: biometrics on certain I-140s before approval is issued. Either way, we are thrilled for the client. AI researchers and engineers are doing some of the most important work in the world right now. When someone is operating at this level—building, publishing, contributing, and leading in a field that is moving this quickly—the EB-1A can be the right vehicle. Proud of the work. Proud of the result. Proud of the team. #EB1A #ImmigrationLaw #AI #ArtificialIntelligence #FrontierModels #ExtraordinaryAbility #USImmigration #TechImmigration #LarsonLegal #LegalImmigration

@firoz1501 This $100,000 H-1B visa fee hike is a game-changer for Indian professionals and the U.S. tech landscape! While it aims to protect local jobs, the uncertainty could push talent back to India, boosting its innovation hubs. Clarifications are welcome, but the impact is already being felt. #H1BVisaUpdate #TechImmigration #IndiaTechRise

The new H-1B policy hits tech startups hard—it's too sudden, leaving many FY2026 approvals at risk of denied entry. I'm pushing our team to adapt, but even if employers want to pay the $100k fee, we don't know how or where yet. We'll keep sponsoring qualified H-1B talent at our startup; their value far exceeds costs. My take on reforms: 1. Increase total caps, not cut—global talent drives U.S. tech innovation & jobs. 2. Raise thresholds wisely to curb abuse, ensuring high-value folks get spots. Watching for changes in coming days. #H1B #TechImmigration #Startups

🚨 TN Visa Update: USCIS Tightens Rules for Tech Roles under USMCA On June 4, 2025, USCIS published substantial updates to its Policy Manual governing the TN visa for Canadian and Mexican professionals. While the TN category remains a valuable option, new restrictions significantly impact software engineers, AI specialists, and IT professionals. Here’s what tech professionals and employers need to know: Engineers: USCIS has introduced a stricter 4-part framework that limits TN eligibility to individuals whose degree, job duties, and field of supervision all align with a recognized engineering discipline. A degree in a non-engineering field (e.g., computer science) will generally not qualify unless the job duties clearly match those of a bona fide engineer (e.g., electrical, mechanical, civil). Software developers, data scientists, and AI engineers may be denied TNs under this category unless they hold engineering degrees and perform traditional engineering work subject to professional licensing or peer-reviewed supervision. USCIS officers may refer to the Department of Labor’s Occupational Outlook Handbook to determine if the role truly falls within “engineering.” Computer Systems Analysts: This category is still viable but more narrowly interpreted. USCIS now requires: A primary focus on systems analysis—studying organizational needs and designing systems solutions—not just programming, IT support, or software development. Evidence of qualifications: either a bachelor’s or licenciatura degree, or a post-secondary diploma/certificate (2 years) plus three years of relevant experience. Importantly, roles focused on coding, DevOps, or general IT administration will likely be denied under this category. These changes are especially important for AI professionals, cloud engineers, cybersecurity specialists, and startup tech teams, where roles often blur traditional lines. USCIS has made it clear: job titles don’t matter—actual duties and academic background do. A "software engineer" with a computer science degree may not qualify under the Engineer category if their work involves software development, not licensed engineering practice. Employers must now ensure tighter alignment between role descriptions, educational credentials, and TN classification criteria. Mismatches—even if minor—could lead to denials at the service center or at the border.

🚨 USCIS Cracks Down on H-1B Fraud 🚨 Think you're safe because your multiple H-1B registrations were submitted in past years? Think again. USCIS is actively investigating duplicate filings from FY 2023–2025—and the consequences are severe: petition denial, revocation, and even criminal referrals.
