Restart the green card under EB-2 category

13 years ago By Chief Editor

Question details

My Labour is filed in EB-3 & my PD is Oct-2003. I got my EAD in 2007. I have a BE degree from India & a work experience of 13 years. 5 in India & 8 in USA. Am I eligible for porting to EB-2? If I file a fresh EB-2 what is the process? Is it just the Perm process & I- 140 or do I need to file I- 485 again.

People with over 5 years of exp. after a 4-year degree may be ale to restart the green card under EB-2 category and then port their PD. Basically, you are redoing the PERM and I-140 for an EB-2 level job.

Professional Experience for EB-3

13 years ago By Chief Editor

Question details

I'm trying to apply EB-3 with skilled workers who have at least 2 years of experience. I worked with 1 firm for about 4 years after graduation. I would like to know all my experience from current firm does not count for my professional experience or not. And are there any alternative options to apply for green card?

Usually, we cannot use the experience gained with the same employer who is applying for the green card, UNLESS the job being offered for green card is more than 50% different than the earlier jobs for that employer.

Mr. Rajiv Khanna is very helpful for taking time to answer my questions on EB3 and EB2 visa and the correspondingly porting from EB3->EB2. This not only helps me but gave some clear ideas on from grey areas on AC21. I fully appreciate the help he rendered to me on this issue. Also Ms. Prerna helped me too on this regard which I won't forget. Thanks a lot Rajiv Sir and Prerna Ji! Best regards.
