Employment-based petitions are filed by The University of Arizona (UA) on behalf of the Foreign National (FN), also known as the Beneficiary, during the Permanent Residency (PR) process as well as during nonimmigrant processes (i.e., H-1B and O-1).
Since the petition is The University of Arizona’s petition, the University has the authority to determine which attorneys may file petitions on their behalf, and as a result represent the University in immigration matters.
The following is a list of four (4) UA approved local immigration attorneys. If a FN does not want to pursue PR through the Office of International Faculty & Scholars (OIFS), they may hire, upon receiving sponsorship from their department, one (1) of the four (4) attorneys listed.
OIFS must still sign the G-28, which allows the UA approved attorney to represent the University in the PR process. OIFS will not sign a G-28 or any immigration forms for an attorney other than the four (4) listed.
Furthermore, FN’s and departments are not allowed to employ any attorney other than those listed below to pursue any employment-based immigrant or non-immigrant status, including H-1B, O-1, or PR.
