    485 Rfe

    Is postdoc reserach associate a permanent position?

    My EB1-OR was approved as a research associate(in 2003). Most important is the EB1-OR employment letter has to be signed by the HR personnel and not your boss or division head. Even then INS may ask for further proof. In my case our institution had a policy(now revoked) of sponsoring...
