This is my understanding only: you will lose your H1B status when you start using the EAD. So the best option would be to keep using the H1B as long as it is valid, until your 140 gets approved.
I think (1) is not an option as I don't think I would meet the criteria OK, only you would know if this applies to you
For option (2) I am not sure how this would work. To be eligible my understanding is you have to have worked in executive/managerial position for the sponsoring company...

You could lose your GC status if you change jobs "too soon" but there is no consensus on what to soon is. Usually they say to take at least a year before switching
It seems like there are a...
1) In addition to the number of criteria, my perception (which may be wrong) is that EB1-EA requires a higher level of "achievement" to satisfy each critera compared to EB1-OR. With this "perception" I am hopeful This is not true as far as I am aware of
2) Based on the rejection letter, I am...
What makes you believe that you would be accepted for EB1OR? The criteria are the same as for EB1EA, you are just required to prove 2 instead of 3. If all of your criteria were rejected before can ou explain how you would approach this differently? Or are you just trying in the hope another IO...
This is the reason I would recommend you use a good immigration attorney. They can direct you in how to write a letter. Letters are personal and everyone is different. You use you pubs, citations and all the other items you mentioned as SUPPORT of your letter. You do not just make a long list of...
Well if EB2 is not an option you should just try for EB1. Worst case scenario it will only cost you money. I have seen cases like yours denied and accepted so I can't say either way what will happen. I think you are good as far as pubs and cictations are concerned, however it is still up to you...
Hi all
We have received our greencard and will be traveling for a couple of weeks to Europe at the end of this week. Do we surrender our old I 94 at the airport when we leave, do we keep it or does it not matter at all what you do with it after GC?
Thanks

Since you are a postdoc it is probably already a problem. How can you be at the top of your field (not the top of postdocs in your field)?
45 papers in peer-review journals (most of the articles from 2007, 11 first/Co first authored)
41 abstracts in national/international meetings Are these...
1. What are the good subjects for NIW.Is my major(Materials Science) OK. I am asking because I can change it later to Physics,Chemistry, Chem eng etc when I apply for phd.Doesn't matter, what matters is that you are good as a scientist. You can be in a brilliant field but be a bad scientist and...
Your lawyers seem to be correct. Even if you get more articles submitted it would probably not work. For EB1 you would have to claim to be in the top 2% of your field. Can you prove this?
Do your lawyers mean they may consider putting in for EB2 in 6 months? That is also backlogged for India...
No it is not. Continuous residence means that you actually live in the US for the majority of your time. 2 weeks every 6 months is not the majority of your time. What you plan to do will put your GC at risk.
As for your reason: I don't think it matters to USCIS why you leave, but I do believe...
.What your lawyer is telling you is the same thing I wrote. But you seem not to understand what he or I mean
Let me try to explain differently.
1) You can only apply under EB3 because of your education. So that cannot be changed
2) In order to get a green card 2 things need to happen 1: your...
You can only do (as far as I know) concurrent filing if the visa dates for that category are current (check the visa bulletin). For EB3 they are not current so you can't file AOS until they become so. For some (not all) EB2 categories they are current so concurrent filing can be done in those...
OK this is not really my field of expertise so anyone who knows more can correct me.
Since he is not a US citizen I believe he can only apply for a green card for her if they are married. She then would fall in the second category of family sponsored green cards. This would mean it would take...
