hi all
I am from India and have an employment offer for teaching in a community college with H1B which would start from August (non-profit category)
I have a Masters from India and PhD from a US university. If my employer plans to process PR what category I come in...EB2 or EB3? I see some many people in this forum applied via EB3 and waiting for a has very long time. Do I qualify for EB2 and if so what is a typical processing time. I see from the wikipedia article that EB2 is available and EB3 has 5 year processing time. Does it mean EB2 is processed pretty fast for everyone or since I am from india still its going to take a long time to get.
Also, my fiance (will be getting married in few months) is a russian citizen and she has an offer with J1. her country is not on the skill list and we figure she can transfer to H1 easily (comparatively).
If she gets PR first is it faster to apply as a spouse or through my employer?
If her employer is applying for PR for her can I apply as a spouse along with her at the same time and get PR with her or I should wait until she gets it and then only can apply.
