    LCA Approved Under EB3 - PERM EB2 now?

    Yes, you can not file for both EB2 and EB3 using the same LC, but once you have the EBx 140 approved, you could use that PD for subsequent EBy 140s, and port the earlier PD. x <> y is possible.

    LCA Approved Under EB3 - PERM EB2 now?

    Sorry to hear that. It's amazing how some lawyers are just plain stupid and get paid to screw people's lives. Once you get a 140-EB3 based on a RIR-LC, you could then file a EB2-140 based on a PERM LC, and have the earlier PD from the EB3-140 "port over" to theh new EB2-140. That seems to the...

    Previous Employer not giving Experience Letter

    The experience letter can be issued by your supervisor during the time of employment. Depending on the company, it need not be from the employer (HR) itself. In fact, it can be on a plain letter, a letter head is not required. It should be written by your supervisor and should have all...

    Can I apply PERM in EB2?

    Here's my understanding: If you have an approved 140 under EB3 that was approved on the basis of a LC filed in pre-PERM, you can then file a PERM LC, get 140 approved on the basis of that and "recapture" the older PD of the EB3 140. You'll need to meet all the criteria for EB2 for the PERM...

    Certified I found out that my case has been certified, both from my attorney last week as well as the site today. The case was certified on 8/1 but took almost 40 days for the letter to reach. So for those who have "Certified" as per the site, have patience. The letter must be stuck in the mail.

    AC21 allows you change employers after 180 days (6 months) of applying for I-485. At that time, the I-140 is not tied to the employer, and therefore the employer can not revoke it (there are still other issues in this situation such as what happens if the 485 gets RFE or denied). But before 6...

    One small correction: The I-140 ceases to "belong" to the employer 6 months after the I-485 is filed, provided the underlying I-140 has been approved.

    You sure? Noe of my colleagues or friends got a letter directly from PBEC/DBEC. All of them heard (that is, no paper) from the attorneys only. Some, but not all, of them had address changes. Looks like even the approval letter mailing is also random, as is everything else at PBEC.

    You may have a point... I haven't seen many CA approvals so far, and what I've seen amongst the approvals is that they are mainly EB3. How about other states? Does EB category really matter?
