LC substitution educational qualifications question

[DOLkemaaki]

Hi everyone,

My company has a preapproved LC requiring Bachelor's degree in Business or Finance. Can this be used as a substitute for someone with a Bachelor's degree in Engineering instead? The work experience requirements and job title are same.

Please let me knoe your comments.
Thanks

From what I've researched so far, you need to have an educational evaluation done from a reputed firm/academic person who can evaluate your transcripts and make a case that you have completed sufficient credits that satisfy the minimum required education in the original LC.

I am in a similar situation. I am currently trying to get a 'labor substitution' for a pre-approved LC. The LC requirements states - 4 year College Bachelor Degree and the Major Field of Study: Computer Related

Does anyone have information on the following:
Do you think my BS in Electronics & Telecommunications
would be sufficient for this Labor? Do you know of I-140 approvals/denials in
such cases?
I had completed 27 credits of my MS in CS in a US university at the time when the original LC was filed. Can these be added to my
educational evaluation to show equivalency to a 'computer related' BS?

2. In LC under experience, previous IT guy mentioned 10 years of experience. where as I have only three years of experience. In LC under job offer require (14 th column) only 2 years of experience.will it cause any problems in my I140/I485 stages?

3.which is my priority date? is Lc (sustituted) filed date or I140 filed?

4. Can it be possible to change employers after 180 days passed and I 140 approved (luckily) in labor substitution cases?


I appreciate your information. Thanks in advance.
