Hello folks, here is a question for you. I know this is not a right forum, but I am sure this forum has right members to discuss this issue with -

Here is my situation:

I have 2+ years left on H1B

I am with my current company (let's call it company A) for about 5 years. (They are well known and very good).

MS + 5 years of experience
IL SESA PD July 2004, RIR EB2
never went to DOL
Case is in DBPC now (obviously!)

I have a very good offer (@ 25% sal hike) from company B (this is also a very good company). Company B is ready to start my GC in PERM ASAP. I talked to their lawyer and she assured me of filing EB2 in PERM. The position is in IT, non-managerial.

- Is it safe enough and advisable to leave the current GC process (labor, basically), and start afresh?
- Does MS + 5 years satisfy PERM EB2 reqs?
- Is anyone in similar situation thinking of the same? (please send me a PM if someone is in similar situation and wish to discuss)
- Could someone point me to a compiled list of disadvantages of PERM?

Thanks,
LaborIL

If I were you, I would jump to Company B. Considering your PD, it is going to be a long wait without an end just for LC. I don't believe BRC is actually reducing backlog. It is simply a creative way of manipulative governance.
 
My opinions as answers to your questions below...

NOT SAFE YET, LAWYERS ARE NOT ABLE TO UNDERSTAND PERM YET, THERE ARE 100% DENIALS IN PERM - NOT ONE APPROVAL AS YET, ALL DENIALS HAVE BEEN TECHNICAL IN NATURE SO FAR, BUT LAWYERS EXPECT TO HAVE SUBSTANTIVE DENIALS NEXT.

THEY EXPECT 6 MONTHS OF LEARNING CURVE ON PERM.

YOU DO HAVE THE LUXURY OF TIME BECAUSE OF YOUR H1-B 2+ YRS.

THEREFORE NOT SAFE, IN GENERAL BUT PROBABLY ATTRACTIVE ENOUGH AND IN YOUR CASE YOU HAVE THE ABILITY TO TAKE RISK.

- Does MS + 5 years satisfy PERM EB2 reqs?

YES - ACTUALLY BS + 5YRS PROGRESSIVE EXPERIENCE QUALIFIES FOR EB2. ONLY MASTERS OR BS+5YRS IS EB2...

- Is anyone in similar situation thinking of the same? (please send me a PM if someone is in similar situation and wish to discuss)

I DID THINK ABOUT IT, BUT NOT READY TO TAKE THE RISK. MY 6YRS EXPIRE NEXT YEAR.
- Could someone point me to a compiled list of disadvantages of PERM?

SORRY, DONT KNOW IF SUCH LIST EXISTS.
Thanks,
LaborIL

I AM NOT A LAWYER OR EXPERT..

Hi LaborIL,
If I were you, I would immediately join company B. My thinking is based on the following:
1. As you have 2+ years left, going for PERM sound safe and perfect
2. As it is going to be EB2 PERM, you will come to know about the result in just few months (2 month paperwork(AD's etc) +2 months max of PERM adjudication). If in case something goes wrong, you will have enough time to correct the problem.
3. Salary is good too (a bonus)
4. Older LC process is taking a heck lot of time, not sure when it will be approved.
5. There are problems in PERM but if your lawyer is good and your employer is helping (your education and experience seems good) there shouldn't be any problem in PERM. or they should get resolved soon. They are workign to resolve all technical problems, hence by the time you r ready to file for PERM (after AD etc) you might be all fine.

Again, these is solely my thinking and presumptions....act wisely...always take second opinion. Per PERM questionnaire/FAQ there is a seperate thread that you may want to visit. Probably you might find all the answers and scary stories there.

Good luck!

You can get 7th year extension based on pending LC (provided your LC case is more then 365 days older). You would get 8th..9th.. year extension onthe same basis.
 
guys stop discussing topics not related to this thread,,you are wasting space and time..be proactive and reply either by pm or direct the person to the right forum
 
Backlog Vs PERM

Guys,

I am a silent follower of this forum , last time i posted is when i got 45 days letter from BEC.

I am not sure this issue is totally related to this forum, but some parts are.

I am with company A from last 4 years, applied for EB2/RIR labor from Texas in Nov 2002, made to regional in May 2003, replied to BEC 45 days letter on Dec 22nd 2004.

I entered 6th year of H1 in March 2005.

Questions?

1) If company B offers me new H1 and PERM processing, what are risks involved in applying 6th year H1 and PERM?

2) Company A is very flexible, I can come back to them if my labor got approved from BEC, What are risks involved in leaving A at 6th year of H1?

Any response will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
-SR
 
Gainsay avowal

I know I am going to get lot of crap from few people in this forum. but there is a famous aphorism...Dont throw stone on others houses if you leave in a glasshouse.

I agree with you guys that questions should be posted in proper threads, but there would be some new guys who would not know about this. We need to be polite and point them to correct one or ignore to reply them. We all have made mistakes in the past too.

Irrelevant thread posting from my dear friends Whyallthis, Gogia and Puhrince.And just checking first few of them!

Well Said..
This is Public Forum.
 
Some think you're in the wrong forum... you'll find answers to these same questions on the previous page of this thread (page 139)...

3 of us responded to LaborIL who was asking the same basic questions...

Take a look there.

I agree...

There is a sense of desperation. People should be allowed to ask questions.

Good research GCCovet, that should prove them all as hypocrites. I am sorry if that was too harsh ... but then again...we got proof to use that word.

Take it easy.

Any approvals further?

Though many members are NOT liking the approval news from other than the candidates – but are we missing potential news as there were many comments - personally I would like to see even friend’s friend news is even better than NO NEWS..now getting serious doubts about the working pace of BECs

Hello Gurus/Hotlines - any updates/analysis?


Whyallthis said:
Its 90 cases per day per BEC as per Icarus so we calculate it as 180 cases per day with 2 BEC's (Dallas and Philly)
As we are quite few people (probably 2-5%) compared to all the backlog cases this is the only information available to this forum.
I hope I answered your questions.
 
Gentlemen...

Like many others I come here for information.

The silly antics and emotional outbursts accompanied by unattractive and completely useless suggestive profanity is quite "unconstructive" maybe even destructive.

Lets not take it upon ourselves to preach and police this portal, none of us has the prerogative nor the ability to do so. This is a public forum in as much as the owners or moderators of this portal wish it to be.

If you are not an owner or moderator, please read selectively and refrain from suggestive profanity.
 
GCCovet,
You might have attended some meetings to discuss some particular topics.
Somebody saying a few lighter words for a little humour is One thing and someone starting a whole list of new Topics not meant for the meeting is quite another....


And WhyAllThis,
Dont be so mad at anyone. Be Cool....Who Knows, You might be a close friend of GCCovet not knowing he uses this screen name :) , Or he might be sitting next to me in my office...So dont take anything personally....

Let's end all this right here and not post anything irrelevant to the forum anymore... Atleast I'm not going to respond to any such stuff now...

Good research GCcovet :)

Hey GCCovet
If you think you are f*&%^*&%k smart ass well let me clarify.
I didn't say not to miss Icarus , I said Lets not make him god and believe from one source only. SO again lets not make him "GOD" not "MISS him" or in normal language get an information from him.

Secondly even I help people by providing information to them about other things, but I did get an email telling me to write in personnel emails when you have to advise.
So Even I did the same thing, I requested people to advise in personnel email.
From f^%*&%^cking next time when you try to be f*&^&k Smart Ass , ask people why you are being contradicting and not try to be some F&*^k "CHUTE of YEAR"
F&*&k U Bi&^%H
:mad: :mad: :mad:
 
To everybody

I apologise for my foul language in previous message.

The reason I get pissed with people like GCCOVET is because this guy try to get applauds from others by calling me Hypocrite without knowing the facts.

Yes I did try to provide information which is not relevant to this portal but when some person advised me not to do so, I provide these information by personnel messages.
Even when I was requesting people not to write irrelevant messages I requested them and told them to write personnel messages. What the hell did I do wrong.
But this :mad: :mad: :mad: GCCOVET has problems of not getting recognised by people in his life so comes to this portal and try to change what I said or I did.
I won't tolerate it.
Thats it
Now somebody want to say something CAMMON GIVE IT or lets talk something related to this portal
 
Whyallthis

WHYALLTHIS, Why all this? :)

Just reading and analyzing the limited information we all get regarding INS is one of the best analytical games we would have ever played.

Let's enjoy. Whyallthis, cheer up. Let's play.
 
Whyallthis...Gotcha!
