No Title
Guys, thanks a lot for all support and encouragement.
After Ph.D., I had 3 years research experience before joining a Reaserach One (One of the top 40 Universities in USA, ranking according to American Ranking System for Universities). When I started process I had 17 Journal articles and several conference articles, some awards, some citation of my research papers. I am reviewers of some of the IEEE Journals. I am life time member of some IEEE Societies. Even after these many credentials my incompetent lawyer was not sure to process my case with EB-1. She said you have around 75% chance with EB-1. That is why, guys I went for LC. In LC initially we could not submit details of all 104 candidates for one faculty position, it was lot of work for chairman of recruitment committee. Any way, we were required to give all recruitment procedure and details at a latter date in form of RFE received from Texas DOL.
But to be true, I wasn\'t expecting RFE at I-140 stage.
Now my stupid lawyer is saying she will get in touch with AILA people at TSC and get RFE as soon as they could. RFE was sent out
on 12/12/01. I hope my lawyer will get it next week.
If I would have gotten RFE in May/June it was fine but after waiting for 11 months I am getting an RFE. This is one of the
several consequences of random processing carried out by TSC. Any way I have to go through this process. But I am sure I will say my lawyer to amend it for CP. If done, I will do CP in Montreal, Canada.
So guys some times things are not in your control. The city I am living in there are few immigration lawyers and The General Counsel of my University advised me to choose one of the local lawyer otherwise I would have gone with Rajeev or other well known lawyer.
Any way, I am expecting some thing good to happen in late January or Feb 2002. By that time I will be celebrating the annual anniversary of my I-140 ND at TSC.
As soon as I get RFE I will make it public for the benefit of future GC seekers.
Guys wish you all happy holidays and merry chrismas.
Good luck to all of you
