CASE PROSPECTUS:

No.

We will be challenging the ban as unlawful under the nondelegation doctrine. We also will be challenging the implementation of the ban as unlawful, as INA §212(f) only gives the president the authority to issue an entry ban, and not a visa issuance ban.

We want the court to enjoin, or cancel, the September 19, 2025 proclamation as it is applied to our participating plaintiffs.

The deadline for joining the lawsuit is November 10, 2025, 11:59 PST(California time). That deadline is in concrete and will not be extended under any circumstances. However, please keep in mind that the earlier participants onboard to participate in the lawsuit, the better we can integrate our plaintiffs’ facts into our arguments, which will result in a stronger and more convincing complaint. If everyone joins at the last minute, we will have less time to prepare the best possible complaint. Time is of the essence, and we appreciate all those who choose to participate early. 

We have not decided yet. We will decide after all plaintiffs are onboarded, because only then we will know what our options are. It is possible that the litigation will be filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia where the government prefers to be sued. It is also possible we will file the lawsuit in the court district where an H-1B applicant already lives, or where a participating employer is located. 

The assignment of our judge is unknown and will remain unknown until after the lawsuit is filed. Also, judge assignments may change more than once in the initial weeks of the case, before being finally assigned to a judge who will preside over the case to conclusion.
If we file the lawsuit in a court district where there is already a similar lawsuit filed, there is a significant chance that our lawsuit will be assigned to the same judge as the first lawsuit. 

No. Representation will be limited to court proceedings.

The fee for all families is the same. We only charge for the H-1B Visa Category Applicant or Visa Holder. We do not charge extra fee for spouses or children in H-4 category. 

No. No litigation is ever guaranteed. Plus, that is not our goal. Our goal will be the entry of our clients into the US without unreasonable restrictions put in place by President Trump on September 19, 2025. We are pursuing this group lawsuit because we believe in your right to a fair outcome, and we will fight hard to advocate for you. But we also want to be transparent: while we’re hopeful, committed, and optimistic, we cannot promise or guarantee success. Litigation carries uncertainty, and court decisions are ultimately beyond our control. We ask that all participants join with hope, but also with realistic expectations.

We currently do not plan or expect to file a motion for class certification in this lawsuit. This means we will not be seeking relief for non-plaintiffs. Those who choose to sit on the sidelines and not participate in the lawsuit are very unlikely to see relief from the lawsuit. The only exception where we may consider converting the group lawsuit to a class action is if at a later date, the judge suggests it or the judge is hesitant to give relief because it is not a class action lawsuit, we will revisit that issue. 

No. 

Nationals of countries impacted by President Trump’s June 4, 2025 travel ban face an additional barrier to issuance and entering the US, and bringing arguments challenging that barrier into this lawsuit would be a distraction from the goal of this group lawsuit. The goal of this lawsuit will be the entry of our clients into the US without the unreasonable restrictions put in place by President Trump’s September 19, 2025 proclamation.
