    EB3 I-140 was approved as EB2 mistakenly

    This happened couple of years ago. While my original EB3 labor application was rotting in BEC, my company filed a new PERM labor in 2006. The education requirement on my PERM application read masters degree (EB2) but also said that they would take BS(3 year degree) +5 years experience. 3...

    I'd surely if I had $500K extra to invest in a regional center for a mere 4.5 - 5.0 % annual return or if I had $ 1 million to invest in any business employing 10 US citizens / permanent residence for atleast two years.

    Sunskiran, If I were you, I'd try to stick with Company A until labor is cleared and I-140 is premium processed even if Company B's offer is extra lucrative. I'd also try if Company B can get my new H1 and Perm labor filed before joining them. Wheels are turning at PBEC and H1/PERM approval...

    Online Status I've been tracking my online LC status since 10/2 periodically and needless to say it still shows In Process.

    Hi, After reading thru the article on Murthy.com, this is what is my interpretation of the situation. 1. I140 for the first LC should be approved FIRST (better if not revoked by employer) if older PD is intended to be used for filing I140 based on a second/subsequent LC. 2. If older PD is...

    Here's how I would put it: 1. We do need to wait for approval of I-140 filed based on the first LC in order to be able to use its PD when filing I-485. 2. I did not find any article that mentioned requirement of waiting for first LC's I-140 to be approved before filing a new PERM in order...

    Friends, As you can see from my signature, my Aug 2003 PD is way too far in future for me to expect PBEC to touch. I thus filed EB2 PERM last month and got approved in 13 days. I am planning to file I-140 based on EB2 PERM next week. I am hoping that by the time this I-140 comes thru, my...

    PERM EB2 qualification

    The answer is No. Perm or pre-perm, experience gained at petitioning employer does not count when filing for LC.
