P*****a 发帖数: 629 | 1 I am currently employed in academia. Originally, my H1-b was approved and
renewed until April 2016. I just heard from the boss and HR, and they might
break the contract due to the shortage of existing funding, which means
there is a chance I cannot continue my position after Dec 31-2015.
What should I do to make myself legally in US quickly?
My EB-2 (NIW) I-140 was approved (PD. Feb 2-2012) previously, and it looks
like there is a chance I could submit my I-485 in the next a few months.
I also consulted with my immigration attorney, and he/she encouraged me to
apply for EB1a. I have some criteria to meet the EB1a requirements.
I think this forum is always very helpful, and my question is that:
Should I just wait for EB2 VB becoming available or should I prepare and
submit EB1a application as a backup plan? Would it make a timely difference? |
B*****o 发帖数: 661 | 2 why don't try EB1 regardless even if you have time to wait for EB2? |
f*c 发帖数: 2726 | 3 你这个PD,不久就可以交485,但什么时候拿绿卡,不好说。
你要有精力折腾,当然就折腾一下子了,不过那也至少得花上个几个月。更重要的是找
下家吧,academia找工作又不需要绿卡。 |

l*******n 发帖数: 8388 | 5 eb1 now! 就算你交了485,今年也不一定能马上拿到绿卡。可以等一类准备好了,140
批了再把二类的485 relink过去,不用重新交485 |
P*****a 发帖数: 629 | 6 Thank you for your reply. Are you suggesting me to only submit Eb1a I-140,
rather than Eb1a I-140/I485 concurrent application simultaneously?
It sounds a good strategy!
140

P*****a 发帖数: 629 | 7 Thank you!
May I ask you a quick questions? I am very short of knowledge on immigration
processing.
What is the current status of AP/EAD application if I can submit I-485 for
EB2 (NIW)?
For example, in case I am eligible to submit I-485 form next month (May 1st)
, I could apply for AP/EAD at the same time, right? How long will it take to
have AP/EAD approved based on information collected on this forum?
Thank you very much!!!

P*****a 发帖数: 629 | 10 Thank you, I will work on this direction as well. Although, I am not
interested in academia anymore. However, it seems that I have to compromise
the situation for temporally legal status.
Thanks,

P*****a 发帖数: 629 | 17 Actually, I am one of that type of people who do not really care to get the
actual green card, as long as I can stay here and work and live. That's the
reason that I did not initiate my applications at a quite late career stage
comparing to my friends and colleagues with a similar background. I think
everything you said is understandable and quite logical. Thank you for
spending your time and answering my stupid questions.
Thanks!
