Hi,Everybody,

I've been browsing this beloved forum nearly everyday to find anything new.Anyhow,as I'm still new and have to be watching more than speaking.This time I'd like to post one question related to changing the way to apply GC on employment basis instead of asylee:

Is it possible for a self-employed person to do this?
(For instance,being a real estate licencee or insurance agent)

For my understanding,even though the self-employed people are self employed,but there is still an employer,e.g.the real estate company or the insurance company.

Is anyone familiar with this issue?Please advise.

Thank you.
 
Thank you for your valuable information,Gilbert.

I still worry that when is the proper time for me to seek employment channel to get GC as my wife and child have not come yet as derivative asylees.If I start the employment procedure right now I'm afraid that it will cause cease and destroy my I-730 petition.Is this right?

I think it maybe better to do this after my beloved arrive here.
Would you give me any suggestion?

By the way,does every employment petitioner must pass through the advertisement process in obtaining the labor certificate?

Thank you and best regards.
 
This will NOT in any way affect the I-730 unless they find evidence of asylum fraud from your EB materials.

Yes the majority of applicants must undergo the advertisement process, which is very time-consuming.

Since your family is already eligible to come here, why do you want to do the employment route? This will entail much money, time and headache. You are also stuck with an employer for quite some time.
 
Thank you very much,Gilbert.

What you said is quite reasonable.The only motivation for me to do the employment route is to get the GC as soon as possible so that I can travel much freely.As all of us know that many countries don't know what the RTD is and even some of the immigration officers at the US border don't know how to deal with it.This has brought us a lot of trouble.

Anyhow I would evaluate and consider what to do next.

Thank you again for your continuous assistance.

God bless you!
 
Thanks, colomb.

The 10,000 cap is annoying and makes zero sense.

I hope that your Form I-730 will be approved soon so that your family is reunited here.
 
Thank you,Gilbert.

For your information,my form I-730 was approved last September and passed to the consulate office last October.But there is no further information up to now.

As for the 10,000 cap for our asylees,I checked the INS's history and found that before 1990s there was an increase for the quota every 10 years.According to this trend,there should be a same bill around the year 2000,but unfortunately there seems no action,especially because of the 911 disaster.This is also the reason why the huge backlog exists.I think that there should be some sound action in the near future relating to us after the anti-terrorism getting its stable situation.The reason for this is also because of many asylees like you have taken some action and furthermore there is also a pending case against the old INS's non-efficiency work in missing many valuable quotas.I forgot in which state this case is pending,but the court holding will come soon.

Let's see what will happen in the near future.

Best wishes.
