EB3 to EB2 and I-140 Refile
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.
I went to Atty.Khanna's for help with porting my EB3 case to EB2. The whole process was transparent and very professionally handled.
Ms.Prena Mehta took utmost care to ensure that my paperwork was accurately filed and I am very very happy and pleased and thankful to the team for helping me get my GC.
Greatly appreciate all the professional assistance.
