She has guided me throughout this petition process. She has helped me in choosing the experts/scientists for recommendation, helping in preparation of these letters, and suitably highlighting my research background that has resulted in getting approval of my petition.
She and her staff at Immigration Desk Inc were very patient and available most of the time I needed them, with and without appointments.
She has done my other petitions successfully as well such as H1B approval and EB-2 PERM and I-140 approvals. I am really happy to recommend Anu for EB-1 and EB-2 petitions.
Anu is one of the best, most trustworthy and knowledgeable immigration attorneys in United states. She goes out of her way to explain complex cases and legal interpretations in a way that that both my employees and I can understand completely.
Ms. Gupta has partnered with Sierrasonic since we started over ten years ago, and she has handled all of our immigration cases.
...As an employer we recommend her highly since we got approvals on complex cases because of her expertise. Also, one of the most comforting things about our relationship is Ms. Gupta’s superior customer service. She goes out of her way to explain complex cases and law interpretations in a way that both my employees and I can understand completely.
She is extremely responsive. I know I can talk to Ms. Gupta at any time of the day, which is great when we encounter challenging immigration situations.
She makes my employees feel special, listening to every detail of their unique situations. I’ve had numerous employees tell me, Anu is the right lawyer for me.
She was very clear about my chances and what I should expect from the get-go. She told me that regardless of my qualifications/merits I should expect a “request-for-evidence” (RFE) from USCIS and she made sure that there was a rough plan ahead of time in handling such a situation. Her statements were generally measured, and she was always careful during conversations to not give false hopes/promises, which I consider to be a highly valuable trait for any attorney.
Sometimes, even with the best-drawn plans, life has a way of throwing its own curveball to complicate everything. In my case, although we planned on submitting my application much earlier than the J1 status expiration in 2020, the COVID pandemic led to numerous delays in the process. However, we did manage to file before the J1 expiry but as she originally expected, an RFE was issued and in the meanwhile, my J1 expired preventing me from continuing work.
The RFE was, from my perspective, a tough ask. USCIS had rejected all my claims and raised questions on every piece of evidence that we had originally submitted.
Anu made sure that we address all of their requests in a comprehensive manner. It should also be mentioned at this point that, that year was an election year (Trump-Biden 2020) and the presidential election was right around the corner. Both my employer and I were happy with the response Anu and her team had prepared and were confident that the application should be approved given its strength and thoroughness in both satisfying the requirements and in addressing the concerns raised by USCIS.
However, USCIS reviewed my application along with an RFE response and rejected my case on the morning after election night through fax at 6:59 AM. I was devastated. What affected me the most was that although my achievements qualified me for an O1A, USCIS refused to recognize it. I had lost all hope and desire of continuing my work and life in the US.
In the first conversation after my rejection with Anu, she spoke to me with passion for how I deserve the O1A and strongly urged me to apply once more. She made sure that didn’t have to leave the country (due to the COVID pandemic returning even with an approved application was very hard).
For me, it was here that Anu Gupta’s greatest quality both as a person and an attorney was highlighted. There are many professional and talented attorneys, which she is, but finding someone who actually cares about their clients and is willing to fight for them with conviction is difficult. Someone willing to fight for you even when going gets tough- even when you lose the strength to continue fighting. In that sense, Anu Gupta is a rare find.
Eventually (approximately a month from the second filing), my second application was approved without difficulty.
The choice of attorney can make or break any case and the choice of Anu Gupta for your immigration needs is one of the easiest recommendations that I can ever make.
