 Immigration: The Road Map Ahead
Thursday, December 7th at 6PM

U.S. immigration policies impact you,

From compliance issues, internship and work visas to green cards and dual-citizenship, we will cover the current topics that affect our personal and business lives
and discuss the future of U.S. immigration.

If there are specific topics that you would like addressed, indicate them in the “comment” section of the registration page. Our speaker, Laleh Sharifi, will also be available to answer your questions.
