Case Summary.

Robby Rubin helped a Malaysian finance professional win approval of an I-539 change of status after a lapse in H-1B work authorization that followed a departure from the sponsoring employer. The filing preserved a period of authorized stay while an approved EB-3 immigrant petition and a current priority date kept an adjustment of status within reach. The case was approved after clearing a Request for Evidence.
