Hi,
I have a 4.5 years BSEE degree with the following remarks in chronological order:
- Graduated in 1996 after 4.5 years at a non-US University
- 1996, worked 2 years in company A as an embedded software designer
- 1998, worked 6 years in a fortune 500 company as an embedded software engineer.
defended my thesis and got my BSEE diploma/certificate (a.k.a Titulo or Title in english)!!!!.
- 2005 - present, working with my current US employer under H1B.
Despite the fact that I worked as an engineer since 1996 with just the course completion certificate (in my country that�s the only document you need to start working as an Electrical Engineer but not so for other engineering or professional disciplines) the issue is that I defended my thesis in 2005 so I could obtain the official diploma which was a requirement for my H1 visa.
My current employer is planning on opening a new job position that would require a MS degree or BS+5 years progressive experience, in other words the so called EB2 job requirements. Do I qualify for that EB2 position?, Would the experience I have since 1996 count as progressive experience?, should I wait for an EB3 position instead?
Thanks

Hi All,
My LC was approved recently(PD June 2004). The location/office for which my LC was initially filed was closed recently.
My company(which has offices all over states) has another locations/Offices in the same metropolitan area.The company attorney is saying that they can use my approved LC to file my I-140(and I-485 concurrently) for another location in the same area as long as it is within commuting distance of the original location.
Was wondering if anyone knows about this?
Thanks

No wonder why AZ tightened the immigration law, may be illegal immigration caused the damage on American grammar.

My Case as of March 2010:
EB3 (India) applied with company A. PD: June 2004.
Labor approved, I-140 approved.
No EAD. Labor was not approved when EB3 dates became current
First issue of H1B March 2003
Currently have a 3 year H1B extension (beyond 6 years) due to run out in Nov 2011.
My Questions:
1. I am still working with Company A. Can I move to Company B, i.e. will I be able to transfer my H1B, which is now in its 8th year? If yes, will the transfer be valid till Nov 2011?
2. If I can move to Company B, do I have to file for a new GC right away? If not, by when?
3. Can this new GC be EB2 with the hope of porting the PD from my EB3 case from Company A? If yes, what is the criteria for such a port?
4. Anything else I should keep in mind if I can and do decide to switch to Company B?
All your help is greatly appreciated!! I have been sitting and just waiting for my EB3 to get current, which does not seem like a possibility now. Hoping that I can use an EB2 case.
Thanks a lot for your time to take a look at my case.
Regards

Thanks a lot for your prompt reply. I have not applied for 140 or 485 yet. Without applying for these there is no way we can apply for EAD right?

The lizard is well exposed, but the composition bothers me some. Feels out of balance to the left because of the cactus. The flower & lily pads are very nice, but I really like the butterfly. Good subject isolation and vibrant color.

This is strange and I don't know if anyone has come across this situation. My I-140 is under appeal process from last 5 months and today I got this update on my I-485 that "my case has been sent to ADMIN APPEALS OFFICE location for processing ". There is no update in I-140 or I-290B forms date online. Does anyone come across same situation then please share with us. :confused:
Thanks

Is there any solution going to come to help peoples here for 9 � 10years paying taxes, contributing to social security, Medicare, having clean records etc, and stuck on numerical limits and VISA numbers availability.
Being in this situation is not because of not started process timely, where as this is caused by the way processing tied up with employer to get GC. And as soon as changed employer the whole process reset. Sometimes employee has to take decisions in the best interest of employers, where as one has to pay price like sitting in the GC Queue again and which was also not bad till the retrogress hit hard.
There also best possibilities that people stuck in queue and waiting for GC are highly skilled, financially healthy, and capable to invest but surely not doing so in the anxiety
Even in the current economic situations most of them also lost their big chunk of money from 401k, IRA and other investment which is going to take years to recover.

Hi everyone
Can you please help with these questions
1) My GC was sponsored by company A. 240 days after my 485 was filed [I] moved to company B. Filed AC21 and using EAD. I am travelling on vacation using AP. At POE if I am asked who is sponsoring my GC, would my answer still be company A?/other
2) Do I need to carry AC21 docs? or will the employment letter from Company B suffice?
Please advise.
Thanks

True up to some extent. When filing AOS, you still "intent" to join for the exact same employment (including location), as specified in your LC. You are NOT required to take that exact employment "at the time" of filing AOS. What is required "at the time of filing AOS" is to have a legitimate intention to take that exact employment upon GC. By joining for that exact employment from anytime now, will actually help in proving the "legitimacy" of your intention (but not "required").
My LC and I-140 was approved with my ex-employer in CA.Now I have a oppurtunity to join my ex-employer in the east coast. Will I be able to file AOS if I join in a similar role and when my PD becomes current ? The immigration lawyer of my ex-employer told me that I have to join in the same location as my LC was approved to take advantage of AOS as it is location specific. Is it true?
Thanks

I do not know if this has been posted on this forum..
But some of the testimonials are interesting for Students & STEM based EB applicants..
This is from Immigration-law:
02/14/2008: House Subcommittee Hearing on Status of Visas & Policies on Foreign Students and Scholars on February 7, 2008
The House had this important hearing that can have an impact on the employment-based immigration issues relating to the STEM foreign graduates in research and higher learning institutions. It is suggested that the EB immigrants in STEM to review the testimonies of witnesses in this hearing.
Purpose and Summary of the Subject
Testimonies of Witnesses:
:: Opening Statements by Rep. Brian Baird
:: Witness Statements ::
Mr. Tony Edson
Ms. Catheryn Cotten
Dr. Harvey Fineberg
Dr. Allan E. Goodman
Under the current political environment and a long pause in the employment-based immigration legislation issues in the Hill, this is indeed an important news in that at least the Congress is giving attention to the predicament the research and higher learning institutions are facing owing to the failure of the do-nothing Congress and the Administration to act on the matter.
