Dear friends:
I'm in the process of concurrent filing (I140/I485/EAD/AP).
I will be applying as EB2 (BS +5 years of experience)
One of items requested is a "Experience Verfication letter" from my former employer.
My lawyer has requested me to get a (already drafted) experience verification letter signed off from my former employer
The issue is:
Human Resources Department of the former company will not sign off on the letter drafted by my attorney. As a policy, they will only give generic letter mentioning:
1. I was employed worked from xx/xx/xxxx to xx/xx/xxxx.
2. Earned xxx amount of salary.
3. I worked as xxx.
However, my ex-colleauges at the former company are willing to vouch for my work experience on their personal letterhead.
My questions are:
1. Will this suffice for I-140 work experience verification?
2. Will letters from my former colleagues have to notarized?
3. What sort of Affidavit, if any, be needed?
Has anyone experienced similar situation?
Can someone advise?
Thanks in advance.
