The IRS would not accept our 2020 tax filing because one was already filed. Our 3rd Stimulus check was also stolen because our CPA was hacked. She later informed me of this and said some of her other client's data was also stolen and used. She should have adequate cyber security in place... View More

You said "She should have adequate cyber security in place". Do you have reasons to believe she does not and the fact that she does not caused the hack?
These are key findings to determine whether you have a cause of action based on negligence.

It depends on your trade (service) mark will be confusingly similar, a likelihood that consumers are likely to assume (mistakenly) that they come from a common source.
A thorough research needs to be done before you file the application. It'd be wise to retain an attorney to do that.

My F1 status expires 09/15/20. I filed a change of status I-539 on 08/19/20 after I was in a car accident, it's pending. I have a job offer that will submit H-1B (cap-exempt) but they won't be able to get it in before 09/15/20. Can they still submit it even after this date?
answered on Aug 28, 2020
I-539 makes things a little complicated. If you filed extension on August 19, 2020, your unauthorized stay will not be accumulated. Yet it does not mean you are in status. Nevertheless, your best bet is to file H1B as soon as possible and attach a the receipt of I-539.
I am completing a change of status application for a change of status from F1 to B2. My OPT expired 07/17, I am in grace period until 09/15. My I-94 says D/S. To answer the question “What date are you requesting your requested status be extended until?” Is it okay to start counting the 180 days... View More

The question is "what date are you requesting the status to be extended until"? But you are changing status, not extending... Thus this question does not apply to your case. You need to focus on applying for B2 visa.

It can be as easy as issuing a dispute through your bank or simply call them to settle. You should... View More
