The final days of June are here, and so is the last call for H-1B petition submissions. As an immigration lawyer, employer, or international candidate, you know how Precise and detail-oriented the H-1B process is—especially in the final stretch.
One of the most important, deadline-driven elements is the credential evaluation, which can either make or break a petition. At International Evaluations, we excel at quick, precise, and USCIS-conformant assessments, even under pressing deadlines, assisting you in filing confidently before June 30th.
Why Time Matters
The H-1B process is known for its Strict and documentation-intensive nature. Although the lottery process may be long over, successfully selected applicants have until June 30th, 2025, to file their final petitions. That includes all supporting materials—most importantly, credential evaluations for foreign degrees.
Why Are Credential Evaluations Crucial?
One of the most common reasons USCIS sends out RFEs (Requests for Evidence) is when they are concerned that the applicant’s foreign degree is not a U.S. equivalent in the same field. If the job title doesn’t directly reflect the degree—or if the degree is from an outside United States school—USCIS demands a credential evaluation to ensure its equivalency.
Such an evaluation must be:
- Done by an accepted academic expert or agency
- USCIS, AACRAO, and DOL guideline-compliant in structure
- Very specific in validating the field of study, degree level, and applicability to the occupation
How We Help—Fast, Reliable, and USCIS-Compliant
At International Evaluations, we provide expedited H-1B evaluation services with a 24–48 hour turnaround, ideal for filing on short notice. Here’s what we offer:
- Education-Based Credential Evaluations
We evaluate foreign academic degrees to see whether they qualify as the U.S. bachelor’s or master’s degree standard in the specific field needed for the job.
Best for:
- Candidates holding foreign degrees in STEM, business, finance, etc.
- Non-accredited or lesser-known degree institutions
- Instances where the degree major and the job title do not directly fit
- Work Experience + Education Evaluations
If the degree is not a perfect match for the position, we blend professional experience with educational background to demonstrate eligibility.
As per USCIS guidelines, 3 years of relevant work = 1 year of academic study.
Ideal for:
- Applicants with degrees unrelated to fields but rich career backgrounds
- RFEs that challenge the field of study
- Challenging roles in tech, management, or analytics that require adaptable backgrounds
- Expert Opinion Letters (Specialty Occupation Justification)
When USCIS questions whether the job is a “speciality occupation” (i.e., one requiring a bachelor’s degree), we offer formal expert opinion letters written by U.S. university professors that describe why the job satisfies USCIS requirements.
This is particularly useful for:
- Marketing, business analyst, or management positions
- New or hybrid titles
- RFEs based on job complexity
