I-140 checklist EB2 w/ approved LC

[liliu]

I entered U.S with F1 visa, now on H-1b status, working in a university, tenure track. My labor certificate was approved recently. My school will file I-140 for me based on EB2 Aliens who are members of the professions holding advanced degree with approved LC.

I read the instruction of I-140. It looks that the required documents for this type of GC application are quite straight forward. I wonder if it’s possible that I DIY. Need support from friends on this board. Please correct me if you think anything is wrong here or remind me if any file is missing.

------------------

Documents needed from School/my employer:

• Petition letter- a simply one page petition support letter
• Offer letter
• Original approved labor certification Form ETA-750
• Ability to pay wage – A letter from university financial officer with detailed school financial information in it.
• Alien’s qualification attesting statement – I am not sure if it’s necessary. Do you have any suggestion?



Documents needed from me:

• INS filing fee: $190
• Diploma, CV and transcript
• Copy of my Passport, American Visa Page and I-94 (front and back)
• H-1b visa approval letter

Thanks
