We need to make a very important decision this weekend and any help will be highly appreciated.
My husband’s (EB3/India) employer is willing to give us a “Labor Substitution/I-140” (PD: March 2005). But, I really want to apply for COS H4 to F1.
So the two options we have is
1) Apply for both “Labor Substitution/I-140” and COS H4-F1
2) Apply for COS H4-F1 and let go of “LC Sub”.
I have spoken to a lawyer and he is saying that we can apply for both “LC Sub” and COS and that there is a very good chance that COS will also go through, although there is a very small risk. But, I am getting conflicting messages from other sources suggesting there is a high risk of COS being denied.
We are trying to determine the amount of risk we are taking if we apply for "LC Sub" and COS at the same time. If the risk is high, that we would just apply for COS H4-F1.
This is a really tough decision and any advice would be greatly appreciated.
