    $20,000 and 11 years and still at square one

    U can file a EB2-PERM separately with the same employer. It takes maximum 45 days. Apply I-140 immediately(if possible premimum). That will get you 3 years of h1B extension. There is a huge hope that CIR will come thru in some form or other, that way you are ready for I-485. Please do not...

    I think you should consider moving out. Even if you get your labor certified the EB3 backlog will hold u for another 3 years(assuming no CIR) and then 485 for another 1 year. So 5 years there again. if you are really frustrated with the people there, consider this : 1: Start finding a job...

    H1B once approved is valid for the term and is valid even if the labor is withdrawn and the H1B is transferred.

    The safe route would be : >> Apply PERM before joining the company. >> Get H1B transfer and join the company. >> Apply I-140 in Premium processing. >> You would be ready for 3 year extension. Caution :: >> PERM labor might take 2weeks-12 weeks. Sometimes more. U would not be able to get...

    I talked to my attorney day before. Should we consider RIR conversion ? I asked. He doesn't recommend it. I basically don't trust BEC, he said. EB3-MA-TR-june/04 EB2-MA-PERM-NOV/06 - approved.

    TR-RIR conversion As per immigration-law , DOL is planning another FAQ on TR-RIR conversion. The basic difference would be that DOL will wait for the employer to inform them about the conversion. Employer would later send the documents. Stupid DOL, how come they did not think about this last...
