I’m a non-TX immigration attorney mentoring a UT student who went to my undergrad. He’s done incredibly well in OCI and pre-OCI. Thus far, he’s landed interviews with (all in Houston): Baker Botts, Sidley Austin, Kirkland, Winston Strawn, Reed Smith, Norton Rose, and Locke Lord. Also Perkins Coie in Dallas. He’s leaning transactional, but also open to litigation. Any insights/advice on these firms in the TX market? Any to avoid?

Thanks in advance.

Scenario: US visa expired in 2021. Applied for a Canadian tourist visa to hopefully go for H-1B stamping in Canada once they open appointments.
Biometrics completed. Haven’t received any comm regarding my tourist visa approval. My partner already revived the visa long ago even if we allied together. Could it be because my US visa has expired? The reason I gave for applying for visitor visa was just for tourism purposes.

Just got introduced to this Telegram channel with some 80k folks fighting for visa slots in US consulates mainly in India. Things USCIS make us do. This can’t stoop any lower. What a terrible way of treating people.

My firm has applied for my L1A visa. If that gets denied, my plan is to travel to Canada and re enter US immediately on B1/B2 visa (already have valid B1/B2 stamp) so that I'll get time to figure out things here in the US (sell my stuff, handle my bank accts etc). Is it possible for me to reenter US on tourist visa?

Hi I’m looking to start my own practice. New York licensed, live in VA with my family.

Can we share some experiences about this field please?

I’ve been practicing family immigration for about a year on my own now. I still find myself struggling to find the right fee structure for various visas. Would anyone mind sharing how much they/their firm charges for various visas. One easy example could be, how much would a simple adjustment of status case cost for a spouse of a US citizen? (This would include the 485, 130, 130A, 131, 765, 864, and now the dreaded 944). Also, do you charge extra for RFEs or included in initial price?
