EB3 to EB2 and I-140 Refile
Question details
I have worked for Company A and got my labor certificate(Approved in May 2009) and I-140(Approved in Nov 2009 under Eb-3). But company A got acquired by Company B. Company B bought major part of the assets from Company A. Both companies do same kind of business.
1. The new company B is in same County and State(but different cities).
2. I Will be doing similar or same work in a similar position.
3. H1B transfered from Company A to Company B.
1) Can company B use Company A Labor certicate and refile the I-140 again?
2) Since Company A filed I-140 on EB-3, Can Company B refile I-140 on EB2?
Generally speaking, I see this as a good opportunity to start a new PERM under EB2 and then transfer the priority date. Speak with your lawyers.
Use of priority date
Question details
I am on an H1B Visa and my wife is on H4. She is about to finish her nursing school. My I140 is pending along with both our 485's. My question is.. if my wife finds an employer who is willing to file an I140 for her can we use my priority date and the already applied I485's to get the green card? My priority date is sept 2001. EB3.
Your wife cannot transfer your priority date to her case.
I-140 revocation based upon fraud reversed
We were recently retained at the I-140 Appeal stage for an I-140 denied on grounds of fraud/willful misrepresentation. USCIS denied the I-140 citing inconsistencies between the ETA 9089 job requirements, the advertisements, and a subsequent letter sent by petitioner with an RFE pertaining to the job requirements. Due to what USCIS termed as "material inconsistencies," the I-140 was denied on the grounds that the labor certification submitted was gained through fraud or willful misrepresentation of a material fact.

Got GC problems?? Talk to Rajiv Khanna. That's exactly what I can say to all of those who are facing trouble in thier GC filing In 2006 I got my labor approved. I filed for I-140 in Nov-2006. And then 485 in Aug 2007. On 2009 Jan 6th I had received an Email from USCIS that my I-140 had been denied. There was no MTR given in my case and USCIS made a point that my consulting company got my labor in fraudulent manner and my I-40 can't be approved. My consulting company lawyer said there is nothing anyone can do in my case. So I contacted Rajiv Khanna. He took my case as if he is fighting for own. And he assured me that USCIS is wrong is denying my case. He himself prepared all the paperwork and involved me in all conference calls. I could listen very carefully on how he dicatated the case to his team and his team polished the necessary items further before filing the case. Rajiv Khanna and his team takes every case personally. They are the best. On 2010 Jan 2nd I received another mail from USCIS. Said my I-140 case has been approved. I never would have thought that I can start New Year like that. My kudos to Rajiv Khanna and his team (Mathew, Sheena) who always responded to my email regarding all case related queries and provided help in best possible way. Please do not hesitate to send me an email if you like to any other questions. But I would suggest and say it again. Rajiv Khanna is the Man you want to talk to for all your GC issues. Thank you Rajeev. I truly appreciate the way you worked on my case.
I contacted Mr. Khanna in January this year regarding the filing of my Green-Card. I found him very polite, sincere and prompt person. Ms. Diane Lombardo is handling my case. She is very prompt; beyond my imagination. She hardly takes time for her response. Although, it took me some time to collect my all papers, my application was received in May by INS and within eight months I got my I140 approval. I found the other members of Mr. Khanna’s group are also very sincere and polite. I strongly suggest to those looking for an immigration lawyer to contact Mr. Khanna before deciding for the service of an attorney.I contacted Mr. Khanna in January this year regarding the filing of my Green-Card.
