## Notable Details
|
|
- First H-1B visa stamping for Yanxin Lu after completing PhD at Rice University.
|
|
- OPT application was denied because USCIS mistakenly cancelled the F-1 SEVIS record when adjudicating the H-1B petition. Lu had to travel to China for consular processing instead of starting work via OPT.
|
|
- The H-1B was filed as "Consular Notify" (not change of status), so visa stamping abroad was required.
|
|
- Attorney Berry Appleman & Leiden LLP (BAL) handled the case for Facebook.
|
|
- Visa was issued with only ~1 year validity (Jan 2019 to Jan 2020) despite petition validity through Jul 2021.
