A Mexican immigrant came to Mr. John Nicelli after his employer agreed to file a Labor Certification on his behalf. The problem was that the alien was paid cash and the employer didn't declare a tremendous amount of income. The immigrant and his wife had just lost their (2) year-old child who suffered from a genetic heart defect. Despite the odds, John Nicelli took the case and convinced the employer to put the immigrant on the payroll. By doing this we were able to demonstrate that the employer had the ability to pay the offered wage since the immigrant was being paid the wage while the application for Labor Certification and the I-140 Immigrant Visa Petition were pending. All the applications were eventually approved and the immigrant and his wife became Permanent Residents of the United States.
