    EB3 I-140 Approved (regular)

    Just want to report back that TSC mailed out the approved notice today. The receipt date is 12/12/06. On 12/26 TSC mailed out a RFE asking for an original document (my lawyer had sent the copy). It is regular processing for EB3.

    Australian PR Vs GreenCard : Req for an Advise

    Depends. They can either give you a 5-year visa or 3-month visa. I did 1.5 years ago - just told them my current situation and that I will go to Australia permently. I think it took 1-2 months to get their decision.

    Thanks for your reply. I filed LC EB3 in Dec 2002 and am thinking about filing PERM under EB2. How much did your lawyer charge you for the PERM filing only?

    Did you file PERM through a lawyer or you did it yourself? I don't know if anyone has done PERM without a lawyer and would really like to hear some experience on that. How long did it take you to prepare for the PERM document inclucing ads? Thanks.

    EB2/EB3 question I know this question might not make much sense but I'm still curious. I have a Master degree. In the LC recruiting ad, we put "minimum Bachelor degree. Master degree is preferred". I don't know why we didn't put "master degree required". Maybe salary offered is not high...

    You have waited for almost 4 years and you still don't have the LC approval. You are still saying the US government is very efficient??? What's wrong with you?

    I also got my screen shot. Everything else is fine except for nationality. I'm from P.R. China and PBEC put me under Taiwan. I don't know if it's worth having my lawyer correct with PBEC. Any comments?

    GC salary is for future employment but your current salary is directly related to the GC salary. INS knows some employers only put on paper a salary and they might actually not pay that salary. That's why they will ask us to submit paystubs or W2s to verify salary history during the GC...

    I understand what you are saying here about your options to continue the LC process. However, to raise the salary only on paper might give you trouble later on when your GC applications is being processed. INS will ask you to produce your W2s from previous years and when they find you were not...
