If labor doesn't allow for combination and person is using combination then there is big problems.
kal1234 said:I have a 3+3 years combination degree. "Bsc (C.Sc) + MCA" equated to Masters.
Concurrently filed I140 &485. Approval date: June 2005 ( after a A2P RFE). PD 2003.
I am planning to add my wife to my 485 (when my PD becomes current).
I would appreciate opinion(s) from all the gurus here. Please comment/ share your experiences.
Can my approved I140 be revoked when I add my wife to my 485 as I don't have a single source Bachelors degree?
Column 14, 15 of my labor.
14: B.S or an equivalent. Major feild of study: Computer Science, maths Engineering etc. Experience : 5 years
15: Experience in ( all the tech jargon with no mention of a combination degree (attorney's blunder)
Current status (AOS pending 485) -- EAD.
h1-B 6th year expired in 2004. I couldn't file for 7th year, coz of the 365 day rule.
UN, Anilt75 can you please share your knowledge?
talktome said:Hi Guys,
I just came to know that my PERM case that was in audit for last 7 months and had been filed 11 months back has been approved.
Audit was to verify the experience in job ads.
We will be preparing to file for I-140 now.
I have a couple of questions and will really appreciate if someone could help.
1. I have an education equivalency case ( 3 years Diploma + 1 PG Computers), can we file I-140 in EB2 Premium?
2. If it gets denied in EB2, can we file another one in EB3?
3. Is there any chance that I-140 can be audited again and if Yes, How much time it might take?
Thanks

I have BSc(3 yr) + Msc(2yr) + PGDCA (1 yr)
Here is mine
"Your evidence does not establish that the XXXXXXX Computer Centre in XXXXXX is an institution accredited to award bachelor's-level degrees. If you submit evidence which establishes that the XXXXX Computer Centre of XXXXX is an institution accredited to award bachelor's level degrees, please submit a copy of the beneficiary's transcripts from that institution."
It looks very strange why they are doubting the Final degree and not commenting about my BSc or single degree issue.

09/25/2006: Reshaping of Bi-Specialization on the Horizon
Vermont Service Center authorities revealed that USCIS was developing a tentative plan to reshape the bi-specialization. The new concept will combine territorial division and bi-specialization in each territory. The country will be divided into the two territories. One territory will consist of the jurisdiction combining former California Service Center and Nebraska Service Center (for our purpose, we will call it North-West jurisdiction), and the other territory will consist of the jurisdiction combing former Vermont Service Center and Texas Service Center (for our purpose, we will call it South-East jurisdiction). In each of these two territories, one service center will specialize in I-129 and related nonimmigrant proceedings and the other service center will specialize in 140/485 immigrant proceedings. In North-West jurisdiction, California Service Center will handle all the I-129 and related petitions/applications in the jurisdiction and all the I-140 and I-485 proceedings will be handled by Nebraska Service Center. In the South-East jurisdiction, Vermont Service Center will handle all the I-129 and related petitions/applications in the jurisdiction and all the I-140 and I-485 proceedings will be handled by Texas Service Center.
bitu72 said:HI There,
first of all thanks for replying. How can the lawyer prove that My PGDCA institute is giving bachelor's degree.
My Institute is very recognized institute. Now it offers DOEACC(A/B/C) level courses which are euivalent to bachelors and Masters. Institute is itself a part of govt of india.
Will a letter from my institue be good enough saying it gives courses which are EQUIVALENT to bachelors degree. dont they need any other document.
thanks again

My Labor says bachelor in Computer sc/engineering/information system.
I probably can get a letter which will state my institute can give degrees euivalent to bachelor level degrees.
I dont know if saying equivalent will work or not.
For PGDCA - i just have one transcript which shows 4 different semesters.
