Accredited degrees
I have a 2 years B.Com from back home & a CA. I have 10yrs of Account exp, plus a CPA. My firm's lawyers refused to file EB-2 & insisted on EB-3. I know two people form another account firm with the same credentials (even same university) who filed EB-2 & got GC. When I got my H1B, I got foreign credentials evaluated & received equivalence to BBA (Accounting & Finance) based on B.Com & CA. But Lawyers insisted that for GC process USCIS won't consider CA.
Your lawyers are right in that CA is not accepted as education by USCIS. Speak with a credentials evaluation agency about Master's degrees.
I want to thank Mr. Rajiv Khanna and Richa Narang my case manager for helping with my PERM application. Mr Rajiv Khanna and his team are very professional, detail oriented and up to date. My PERM was audited in 2009 and Richa Narang made sure that all the documentation was completed and the details were answered promptly. Mr Rajiv Khanna provided excellent guidance in obtaining required letters to answer the Audit notification. My PERM was certified last week, This is such a great relief because I am in my 6th yr of H1-B. I look forward to work with this great team for the next steps. I would recommend Mr Rajiv Khanna and his team to everyone.
