Good News - I140 approved
Friends,
I wish to share the good news that my I-140 got approved today.
I-140 Filed: Sep 12th. Got converted to PP on Nov 20. Approved Dec 12.
I was totally ignorant of the intensity of my case until I visited this forum. I did not know anything about the qual. and experience mentioned in the ETA.
I was too much worried about my qualification and the Col 14 in ETA 750.
I thought I have no chance of getting my I-140 approved and decided that I need to leave the country. But I had high hopes in my prayers which had lifted me upto the current level in my life.
I was so much frustrated that I did not even work of 2 days. But finally the good news not only for me but also those who are in the same boat as me has arrived in the email.
Here is my case details
Col 14: Degree in Computer Science or Related study
Experience : blank
I have : Batchlors in Arts but MCA with tons and tons of experience. Yes I started my carrier as Programmer in 1991. Gone through several stages and technologies in the last decade.
My edu. evaluation mentioned that I have Batchlor of Arts and Master of Science in Computer Science. My attorney said that I don't need to worry about the RFE as I have MCA though the ETA 750 mentioned only batchlors. Until now, I did not believe my attorney because of the practical cases discussed in this forum.
However, friends, please DO NOT loose your heart. Take my case as an example if you have 3 year degree that too in Arts, still you can get your I-140 approved. Believe in prayers and Keep praying.
I would like to extend my thanks to UN, anilt75 and all others.
Thanks

--His ETA does not allow for combination of education. The only option(not that it works!) he's got right now is to prove that one of his degrees by itself ("single-source") is equivalent to BS in US. Another pitfall his attorney laid out for him is the major field of study. It is isolated to "computer science or related" field.
He has 2 degrees. MCA and 3-year bachelor's.
1) He could equate 3-Year Bachelor's degree to BS in US. However, his major field of study is not in computer science.
2) His MCA (Masters in Computer Applications) is a 3-year degree too. However, atleast, this matches field of study as required by ETA.
It appears to me, option#2 could be one of the stones he could throw in the dark. Does it work? Chances are very less. He needs tonnes of luck.
Hope he finds a better option.
