PERM Eb2 Part-Time Experience

[dohko8]

Can part time experience be counted for Eb2?

I have an MBA and 2.5 Years of part time experience however this was done before obtaining my Bachelors Degree, can I count this experience in the petition and say apply MBA+1?

Thanks

Re: Part-Time Experience

Yes, you can use part time experience but it counts as 1/2. So, if you have 2 years of experience at 20 hours/week, that is equivalent to one full year.

Thanks for your answer.

You cannot use a pre baccalaureate experience as a count towards your experience.

below is quoted from the ins website :
"the alien has at least 5 years of progressive post-baccalaureate experience in the specialty"

My apologies, I must have read your post wrong. I did not see that your query was about PRE-BACH experience. No, that does not count. Your experience has to be gained after the Bachelor's degree; however, it can be acceptable to use experience gained prior to or during GRADUATE-level course-work such as a Graduate Teaching Assistant.

My apologies for any confusion this may have caused. I didn't read your post correctly I guess.
