MJB Immigration Partner Michael Jolic at the San Diego office recently worked on a complex case involving a physician who recently received a waiver of a two-year home residency requirement via the sponsorship of the Southeast Crescent Regional Commission (SCRC). The medical group determined that the physician’s services were needed in additional underserved areas on top of what the SCRC had initially approved. Attorney Michael worked with the government agency to secure support for adding more underserved work locations to the previously approved J-1 waiver. Our office is currently working on securing an H1B amendment to allow the physician to work at these additional sites. Residents of these underserved areas will ultimately benefit from this physician’s presence.
