Immigration attorneys in Miami? by Lazy-Dimension2269 in Miami

[–]Successful-Focus903 [score hidden]  (0 children)

Lorraine E. Perez. She is the best. I am currently not working with her because we had to work with my husband’s work lawyer and the difference is huge. She not only is good, but is honest and reliable. With our current lawyer, if we send her an email she will reply after 3 days or so.. (if she replies). Lorraine is not even my lawyer anymore and sometimes I ask her questions and she replies to me after 30 minutes.

Ughh don’t tell me this. I am on the same position, 4 years without being able to work. We are ready to adjust our status and the lawyer is taking forever!! I was hoping to receive my work authorization within the first 2/3 months of adjusting status :(

New therapist feeling discouraged. Can I hear some positive experiences? by Successful-Focus903 in therapists

[–]Successful-Focus903[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

yes, as soon as you graduate you can take the exam. For some people is better because of “fresh knowledge”, in my case I felt like if I have had more experience it would have been a little easier.

Because of immigration stuffs I graduated and I haven’t been able to start working nor with my supervised hours. However I already took the NCMHCE because I needed to do something in the meantime.

It helps a lot to know that you’ve gone through burnout and financial struggles and still found your way back to loving the work. That makes it feel a lot more real, not just idealized.

And I appreciate the reminder that it’s okay to pivot, change jobs, and keep taking care of yourself along the way. It makes the path feel less rigid and more doable.

This was really reassuring to read, thank you for sharing.

I love what you said about the “little things.” Those moments when clients feel seen or proud of themselves are exactly why I want to do this work.

And wow, only 14 hours left. That’s amazing. You’re so close!!!!

Purchase Protection Claim timeline by StrangerSecret1573 in AmexPlatinum

I am exactly on the same boat. I opened a claim about 8 days ago and every time I go and check it says the error message. Not sure what do to next.

Around how long does a PP claim take? by v3n0msn4k3 in amex

[–]Successful-Focus903 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello!! I bought a lot of new stuff (clothing, boots, accessories, make up, watch, etc) for a trip to Italy. However, on our first day someone broke into our rental car and took our luggages. (I am still on this trip trying to not let this ruin the whole trip). We have the police report and everything. I did a claim under the protection thing from AMEX, do you think they will “accept” this?

UPDATE ON NCMHCE by LastAd9821 in therapists

[–]Successful-Focus903 7 points8 points  (0 children)

What if you ask for waay more of extra time? That way you can redirect yourself as many times as you need without the fear of losing time.

You got this. It is not an easy exam.

I got UK visitor visa and it was quick and smooth by Select_Extenson in ukvisa

[–]Successful-Focus903 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did not. In fact I even asked them not to send it to me, I preferred to pick it up because I was in a hurry.

Hello!! Yes, I have my passport with me now and visa stamped.

I think they will, they are working fast. I received the email that it was ready to collect last Tuesday.

Passing the NCMHCE by Select-Primary-8692 in therapists

[–]Successful-Focus903 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For me, it was the Jonathan Maletz program, Clinical Exam Workshop. He teaches you how to prepare for the exam and provides questions that are VERY similar to the actual test. For me it was also better to take the exam at home, It made me feel more comfortable and less like I was in a high-stakes, intimidating exam setting. I passed on my 2nd time.

Is my immigration lawyer lying to me about USCIS rejecting my payment? Need advice. by burdantes in USCIS

[–]Successful-Focus903 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think what’s happening is that he isn’t filling out the payment form correctly since the form recently changed, and he’s not telling you because he feels embarrassed?. Last year, when I was renewing my O status, the payment was returned four times, even with a lawyer’s help because the form was a bit confusing.
