Hi everyone;
Presently I am doing my 3 year term. Completing next yr end. My employer is willing to give contract for another 2 more years. But my doubt is how the clock start, like, 5 year term stats only from the date of I-140 approval or will they consider my already completed time in H1-B.
Would appreciate experts opnions.
Thanks

I am in Texas. To get a letter from the state department of health how do you think I should approach and how long they would take to issue?

NIW & 5 year requirement

I completed the 5 year requirement in a MUA this March, but only got the I-140 approved in April. My contract will end soon, and I would like to move to an area which is not underserved while awaiting greencard approval. Is there anyone out there in a similar situation?
