“Attorney Steven Nguyen & his staff successfully applied for Change of Status to F-1 & F-2 Student & Dependent family members for a family of four from Vietnam! The family had originally arrived in the United States in B-2 status. After it was determined that they wanted to remain in the U.S. for academic purposes, Attorney Steven was able to help the family carefully coordinate the time-sensitive application with the school, the family, and their U.S. sponsors. They wasted no time to ensure that all I-20 information matched up with the appropriate U.S. regulations and that the family could show strong financial ties without any intent to abandon their residence in Vietnam. The case was approved within 1 day with premium processing. Contact the Law Office of Steven Nguyen & Associates for your free assessment today!“
“Attorney Steven Nguyen & his team had the pleasure of working with an H-1B Entrepreneur petition for a self-owned dental practice in California. As the owner of a small dental practice, she was initially overwhelmed by the complexities surrounding the “right to control” issue—a major hurdle for self-employed petitioners. Attorney Steven not only understood the unique challenges faced, but he also had the foresight and expertise to craft a compelling legal strategy that addressed every concern USCIS might raise. He worked diligently with the client during the incorporation process to establish a formal, professional board of
directors. This showed independent oversight of the client’s H-1B employment and clearly demonstrated that the job wouldn’t be solely self-directed. Every step of the way, Steven provided tailored guidance, timely updates, and start-to-finish document reviews to provide the client with peace of mind. The H-1B petition was approved quickly with Premium Processing, allowing the dentist to achieve her dream of owning her own practice while maintaining lawful H-1B status in the U.S. Contact the Law Office of Steven Nguyen & Associates for your free assessment today!“
‘”Attorney Steven Nguyen played a pivotal role in securing the approval of an L-1A New Office Petition for a client from Vietnam engaged in the global manufacturing of nutrition products
and vitamin supplements. From the very first consultation, Attorney Steven demonstrated a deep understanding of both the legal intricacies of the L-1A process and the practical business realities facing international entrepreneurs. He worked closely with the client, often during overnight hours, to develop a robust and strategic business plan that not only met USCIS requirements but also clearly articulated the company’s vision, operational structure, and growth potential in the U.S. market. One of the most important aspects of Attorney Steven’s representation was the ability to guide the client through the capitalization documentation process—detailing every financial aspect of the new U.S. entity through a variety of intermediaries, in a way that was both transparent and compelling. His meticulous attention to detail and mastery of immigration law helped the petition stand out, ultimately resulting in an approval within just two weeks through premium processing. The client has praised Steven for his professionalism, responsiveness, and strategic insight, and credits him as the key factor behind the successful launch of her U.S. operations.

“Attorney Steven Nguyen & his team successfully secured two exceptional EB-3 Skilled Worker approvals—one for a Chicken Farmer in Arkansas and another for a Pho Restaurant Chef in North Carolina—both achieving record-breaking approval times without the need for premium processing. The Chicken Farmer’s I-140 petition was approved in just 2 days, while the Pho Restaurant Chef’s case was approved in only 8 days, representing some of the fastest EB-3 processing times in recent memory.
The Pho Restaurant Chef case presented unique challenges, as the client came to Attorney Steven after encountering significant difficulties following a faulty initial filing by another attorney. Understanding the stakes and the emotional toll of starting over, Attorney Steven immediately took action to rebuild the case from the ground up with meticulous attention to detail.
One of the most critical aspects of both cases involved navigating complex ability-to-pay requirements. Attorney Steven worked closely with both employers to carefully review and address individual issues on their tax returns, ensuring that all financial documentation clearly demonstrated the employers’ ability to pay the proffered wages. His deep understanding of USCIS’s ability-to-pay standards—combined with strategic presentation of financial evidence—proved instrumental in securing these swift approvals.
From start to finish, both PERM cases were approved within 1 year of processing, with the final I-140 approvals coming in record time – within 8 days without Premium Processing. The result was extreme peace of mind for both clients, gaining expedited results without paying for Premium Processing service (saving each client thousands of dollars in government fees).
