Prodded by Executive Orders of the Trump administration, American immigration officials ask ever more probing questions and request voluminous information. Consular officers question visa applicants; border officers inspect applicants for admission; USCIS officers interview companies and visa holders at FDNS site inspections; and federal immigration agencies require answers to ever-longer online and paper-based forms and issue requests for additional evidence. How companies and noncitizens respond during each encounter can lead to success or failure or, or worse yet, long-term adverse consequences.  This podcast, featuring Angelo Paparelli, Carly Ross and your host Shai Dayan—all members of Vialto’s US immigration team—offers insights, strategies, tips, and tactics on how to truthfully respond to achieve a passing grade.  To learn more about Vialto's immigration capabilities, visit our website
