Hello,
I am Rupa Sarma, a new member of this forum. I always used to read the postings here and they were quite informative. Now, i am at a situation where i need some input on my case which is a little complicated i think.
I have been working for company A which filed a labor in RIR ages back and it went to backlog center. I am on my 8th year extension as such (which i got based on my pending RIR case).
Also company A has started working on filing a new labor through PERM.
Now, company B is offering me an approved labor.
So, here are a couple of questions.
1) How do i know that the approved labor offered to me is genuine (not already being used for somebody else)?
2) How can i know the track record of the company B?
3) What is the right time to join company B?
Just join them now and file I140 and 485? or file I-140 and 485 as a future employee and then join them after getting EAD? or join them after getting the EAD and the approval of I-140?
They are asking me to join them immediately.
But i need to know what time is best to join them so that i will be very safe.
4) The qualification and experience mentioned in the approved labor is a perfect match as such.
But there is a salary difference between what I am getting now (85K) and what is mentioned there in the approved labor (100k). What will be the impact of this on the I-140 and/or 485 approvals?
5) What are the pros and cons of concurrent filing (applying I-140 and 485 at the same time) over applying 485 after I-140 approval?
6) Can I file I-140 and 485 from two different employers at the same time (if my labor from the backlog center gets approved after I file I-140 and 485 using the approved labor of employer B)?
7) How do I know whether the approved labor is of EB2 or EB3 category? They showed me a copy of it.
But at no place, its category was mentioned.
Any valid input to these questions will be of great help to me in deciding which way to go.
Happy week end.
