We just received notice that another client who had applied for an I-140 Visa has been approved. Great news and we enjoy sharing the good news with each other and all our readers! This person had a particularly difficult situation, and was applying for an EB3 visa.

Sometimes, people just give up hope after receiving an RFE or denial, especially for a three-year degree, and think they have nowhere else to turn. CCI offers these persons free pre-evaluations to determine whether they can help provide the evidence required by USCIS. If the expert evaluators and professors don’t believe they can offer a successful outcome, they are upfront and honest about that.

The majority of time, though, the experts can provide the necessary evidence. More than 95 percent of the time, they are successful. Once clients have received an RFE or denial, though, it’s an uphill process. The best outcomes occur when clients come to CCI first.

If you do turn to the experts at CCI for assistance, be sure to follow all instructions carefully. If you don’t include all the evidence that you’re given, you risk having your petition denied. Don’t save evidence for later – it won’t help.

If you want help having your immigration visa approved, you’ve come to the right place. If you have the necessary academic credentials, the experts at CCI can help show that your foreign credentials are the educational equivalent of the U.S. degree required on your labor certificate.

This week, we were very pleased to hear from another client who had received approval for his I-140 visa. It’s always wonderful to hear good news from people we have been able to help, and to offer help for someone else who has received an RFE or Denial. This person had received an RFE based on EDGE, so this approval was especially good news, and may offer hope to many.

This person had obtained a three-year degree from India, and the USCIS required additional evidence that his degree was equivalent to a US Bachelor Degree. Using all of the documentation and research accumulated by Dr. Sheila Danzig and Professor John Kersey, we were able to show satisfactorily that this degree was indeed the educational equivalent of a US Bachelor Degree.

This can be a difficult process, because universities in India do not document semester credit hours in the same manner as the US. However, when clients are able to obtain the actual number of credit hours from the university, they are usually able to satisfactorily demonstrate that they have at least as many contact hours as those required for a US Bachelor Degree.

We are always very glad to hear from our clients when we have been successful in demosntrating their academic credentials to be equivalent for immigration purposes. We also are glad to be able to share general details about these cases in the hopes that they may help a potential or future client. If you’ve received good news about your RFE or denial, contact us and let us know. We won’t use your name or particular details unless you give us permission to do so. We will honor your privacy. Just let us share the good news and hope with other people who are experiencing the same difficulties you have!
