Can the same company that I got my first year experience sponsor me for green card? Why most attorneys are recommending not to go with the same company to file perm? Thanks in advance.

The question is unclear. The company can certainly file for your GC. However, DOL rules are that you cannot use any experience you get with your current position as a requirement in the job posting, since that would automatically rule out any external candidates that would like to apply for the job posting.Just an opinion; Not legal advice. -

Your current company can sponsor you. The problem is that you can't count your experience at the company and the requisite to have an employment based green card such as EB2 requires at least 5 years of experience.

Currently another company that is owned by the same owner as the one I got experience is sponsoring me for EB3. I was just curious why attorney told me it was better if another company sponsor me. As far as I understand doing that can eliminate other U.S candidates for the position. My got approved by DOL and recently filed the i-140 and i-485 concurrently.03/05/2019 Filed concurrently EB3 Regular

So the position is a new role. That's ok then because your previous position should count.Originally posted by fdb2171 View Post
As far as I'm concern there isn't anything that will prohibit you from applying with the same companyEB2 - National Benefits Center (I-485/I-765/I-131)
