Tips for checking visas and compliance

The hosts Kate Kalmykov and Faraz Qaisrani deal with immigration guidelines, including an increased examination of the visas, changes to the processing times and new measures that affect the immigration of companies. They deal with shifts in the H-1B interpretation, contract-based visa reforms and the potential elimination of H-4-EADS. They also cover the adjustments for consular visa operations that affect travel accounting as well as the guidelines that affect TPS and humanitarian probation programs for certain countries such as Ukraine, Venezuela and Haiti.

The episode emphasizes the importance of employer readiness with recommendations such as the implementation of internal audits, the training of employees for compliance and proactively planning visa delays. Kate and Faraz also examine the enforcement trends, including DHS visits on site, I-9 audits and possible raids in the workplace, in which it is demonstrated how companies can mitigate risks and comply with compliance with good fight against faith.

In addition, strategies to combat long-term delays are discussed to process visa administrative delays such as submitting mandamus lawsuits. Since the immigration policy remains fluid, Kate and Faraz note that employers should carefully monitor the developments and request guidance of the immigration consultant to anticipate challenges and ensure business continuity.
