I have Bachelor of Business Administration (3Yrs) and Higher Diploma in Software Engineering (2Yrs) and 10 Yrs of Experience in which 7.5 Yrs of experience in required job description. Will I be eligible for EB2 Category?
Depends. If the SE diploma is post graduate (not available for undergrads) AND recognized - you MAY be eligible for EB-2.
I have to apply the GC under EB2 category. I have done my B.Sc(CS - 3 yrs) + M.Sc (CS - 2yrs) and having 9 years experience with Tech Architect - Lead(leading 5-20 peoples) position at this moment. My M.Sc(CS) has evaluated as US MS for H1 visa approval. Will I eligible ?
If your BS and MS are in the same field and are related to your work, EB-2 should work.
My EB3 I-485 is pending with PD 06/2006. My company is willing to file the new EB2 as I have Indian equivalent Masters (3+3 years) and more experience as well as increased job responsibilities. Can I accept it and do the portability to get my EB3 PD? What is the minimum wage for EB2 category? Would my current company experience counts for new EB2 category? Any suggestions on the EB2 job responsibilities?
Theoretically, this is possible. As to the practical implications, you must speak with the lawyers who will represent you in the second green card process.
I have MS in Electrical engineering with 3 yrs exp. The job requirement is for MS in Engineering + 2 yrs. Do I qualify for EB2?
Yes, you qualify for EB-2, unless the alternate requirements, if any, for the job are less than Bachelor's + 5 years exp.
I have done my Master's in computer science in US and I have 6 months experience before joining my current company. Will I be eligible for EB2 category?
If the job requires a Master's degree - yes.
I am in my final year of PhD (Semiconductor devices) at a university in US. I did my MS in the same university. I have around 5 first author publications. The jobs in my area typically require a PhD, so I was wondering what are my chances of getting green card under EB-2 category (right after I get a job in the industry)?
EB-2 chances look pretty good.
I filed Perm under EB3 category on 1-Oct-2008. I got an audit. As per your current Perm dates, they are processing Aug'08 audits. Can I file with same employer under EB2? If yes, can I also keep EB3 file running parallelly. Is there a way for me to carry EB3 PD after I-140 Approval,if I file a new EB2? I completed 4yrs 2 months on H1B already. Please suggest me if I can change my employer now to file for EB2 or not. (If there is any way i can carry my EB3 PD for EB2 or not?). My lawyer said they can not change the current EB3 file to EB2 as they did not describe it for EB2 role.
It is logically inconsistent for two jobs from the same company for the same individual. If you have a good, logical, true explanation, there is no law that says you cannot have two PERM apps for the same individual for different jobs with the same company. But you cannot transfer PD until the I-140 is approved. I see no issue with changing jobs right away. You may have just enough time.
I have 3-year Bachelor's degree, Certified Software Architect, 15+ yrs experience(including current employer), 100K+ salary. Do I qualify for EB2 under Exceptional Ability/
Under EB-1, probably no. Under EB-2, unlikely, but have your lawyers review.
My PERM application just got denied due to the recent layoff in my company. Can I apply EB2 (schedule A) to bypass the labor certification step? Will the recent PERM denial affect the Schedule A application? Is it ok to submit the schedule A application soon or I have to wait for a certain time period?
If you are qualified, you can apply for Schedule A. I cannot think of any way the PERM denial or layoffs could cause any issues and there should be no waiting to file.
I have B.Tech in Engineering from India. I have over 13 years of experience in IT.I am working as IT architect.My company is ready to process my GC.Am I eligible for EB2?
Assuming BTech is a 4-year degree, it looks like you are eligible for EB-2.
