non-RIR/RIR in Big Company

[quietheart]

Hi,

I am working in a big financial company in NY. My company agrees to sponsor green card for me. But my company lawyer said that I need to take non-RIR process, they cannot go with RIR. Is it because it is safer to go with non-RIR process for big company?

And I have a master degree, but my position probably requires only bachelor degree. In order to use EB2, do I have to make the degree requirement in Job description Master? Is there any other way around?

Thanks a lot .

Try EB3 - it is always faster in 140 stage. Also try to convince for RIR. There is no such things as - it is safer to go with non-RIR process for big company. RIR depends on your case.

if you apply in non-rir from new york state then you should be prepared to wait for nearly 6-9 years to get your green card.
