I140 RFE What should I do
Last week I received a RFE from NSC on my I-140. Here is what the letter says.
"To establish that the alien is a professional holding an advance degree, you must submit:
An official academic record showing that the alien has a U.S. advanced degree (or a foreign equivalent degree); or
An official academic record showing that the alien has a U.S. baccalaureate degree (or a foreign equivalent degree), and evidence in the form of letters from current or former employer(s) showing that the alien has at least five years of progressive post-baccalaureate experience in the specialty.
Submit evidence that the alien obtained the required Master’s degree or Bachelor’s degree plus 5 years of experience in Electronics Engineering, Computer Science, or related field before November 2002. Evidence of education must be in the form of an official record showing the dates of attendance, area of concentration of study, and date of degree award, if any."
I am on EB2. My ETA 750 indicates M.S. degree plus 3 years of experience. I have PhD, M.S. and Bachelor in computer science. My lawyer already submitted the degrees but not the transcript records and experience letter from former employer. They looked at the letter and say they will submit the transcript records and the letter. They are optimistic.
1. Doe anyone know exactly what does USCIS want in this RFE? transcript records ? degree ? or to certify my degrees as U.S. equavalent?
2. anybody knows how to show the study area, date of attendance, and date of degree award? The degree certificates only have the date of degree award.
3. Will copy be enough for the trascript records or has to be certified true copy?
Has anyone gotten any similar RFE?
Thanks a lot for the help!
