Hi 4evernp,

I have seen the SVP code also on my PERM application that I have signed on it yesterday. I don't remember exact SVP code but I can tell you tomorrow since have a copy of it.
 
eb2 questions

1) the ad that my employer has given, is very generic
it covers all software engineers (whether 0 or 10 yrs)

is it good enuf?

2) my job title is software engineer

does it help if i specify senior software engineer in perm?
(i saw many SE getting EB2)

3) my employer has to prepare business necessity letter

is this the single most thing important for perm?
what should be the format?

4evernp,

I don't have a PWD copy with me. But whatever I have said in my previous posts that was there in my PERM application that was approved by Atlanta center and that has been send to me by my attorney to sign. One thing I can tell you, I can check the question that you have asked whether it is there or not on my PERM application.

I will check with my lawyer. Since my lawyer, employer and I are local. I may have a slight hope to be able to file it on time.

I have asked my lawyer to file I-140/I-485 for me concurrently no matter happens. Looks like the printout can be used and the original approval can be submited before 10/31. :)
 
you can file without the hard copy

ashrock11,

xxw106 is right. I filed it with Faxed Copy from DOL. We also attached the printout of the screen, search results where it says my case was certified.

Filed it yesterday, fedexed it just in time.

You should give it a shot. Use same day service with Fedex.
 
xxw106

eb2 and IT

well

he must be blind

because i have seen 10-20 in immigrationportal forums alone having successfully certified in perm EB2 with simple title as "software engineer"

it might be hard, or chances of audit /scrutiny might be much more

but a good lawyer should be able to pull this off
