I work for company A for the last 7 years. I have been a manager with the same company for 5+ years. I am now in US for past 1 year on L-1 A Blanket visa. My current employer is not agreeing to file my GC. Some one told me that the scenario listed below is possible.
Scenario: Identify a new employer who is ready to sponsor my GC. Since GC is about future permanent employment, that employer can directly file my EB1. I can join the new employer once my EAD comes through. Is this possible?
Not entirely true. The GC IS for a future job. An employer CAN, based upon a good faith intention to hire you in the future, file a GC for you even while you are not working for them. But, an EB1 for an international manager/executive can only be filed by a company related to the company you worked for when you were outside USA.
Dear Rajiv,
I wanted to share this information with you. I have received my e-mail
today that my EB1-EA has been approved at TSC on 27th April 2006, we have
submitted to CSC on 8th March 2006, and was transferred to TSC on 21st March
2006. So it is just a month that we got the approvel. I would like to thank
you and Diane Lombardo (my case manager) for your excellent work.
I am satisfied with my consultation with Mr. Khanna.
