Steve Palazzolo is back in the Law Shanty with special guest Sarah Bileti, chair of Warner’s Immigration Practice Group, to address your most pressing immigration questions. Since President Donald Trump’s inauguration, the immigration landscape has been shaped by a constant stream of executive orders and shifting headlines, fostering uncertainty amongst both employers and employees. Warner reached out last month for your questions in a special Law Shanty announcement, and we're here to deliver answers.

We received a wide range of questions — too many to tackle in a single episode. So, we’ve selected the most popular submissions to discuss in today’s vlog. Below are the key questions Sarah and Steve dive into:

With the H-1B Cap Lottery closing on March 24, 2025, are there any anticipated issues with this year’s lottery submissions, such as processing delays or increased Requests for Evidence, similar to what we saw during Trump’s first term?

Will recent immigration changes affect the willingness of other countries to participate in cultural exchange programs? And how might this impact J-1 visa holders?

When working with staffing agencies that specialize in placing workers with visas, who is responsible for ensuring proper documentation? What steps can employers take to stay compliant?
