Amended H1B Extension Petition for Promotion to Higher Position

Amended H1B Extension Petition for Promotion to Higher Position

Amended H1B Extension approved for individual who was initially employed as a Computer Systems Analyst and was thereafter promoted to the higher position of Software Engineer within the same occupation requiring the use of the same academic training. The Software Engineer position has minor additonal responsibilities over the Computer Systems Analyst position and the promotion occurred prior to the expiration of the existing period of stay. Pursuant to the immigration law, this was a minor change in the terms and conditions of employment for the same employer as opposed to materially changed circumstances of employment and was reported with the extension petition.
