I think that to move to EB2 with the same employer, it may be possible to count experience from the same employer if the new role you are moving to is atleast 50% different from what you are doing in your current role.
I am not an attorney and so you should consult one about this, though. Can anyone who knows this comment?
If the responsibilities is more 50% different, its a new job and not a same job where the EB3 was sponsored.

Thank you for the quick response and advise.
Do they stamp the I-551 on a current passport, when he gets it renewed, even if we have not receive the approval letter? How do they verify this?
I do not have experience with this, so I greatly appreciate your patience.

my fiancee has F-1 visa too, but we are getting married next month so excited. should i ask my employer to apply for us the same time?
Yes, if she wants to change from F-1. She might want to stay in F-1 status as long as she can, especially since she can get work authorization.
i don't know how is this work, and how much is the f-1 to h-4 status change costs.
That depends on the lawyer, Filing fees are $300
if i get denied, she will be denied too
Yes
but if she gets denied, will i get denied?
No, not necessarily
in other word, is filing both visa same time affect the chance of getting approved?
I've done thousands of H-1B and H-4 cases filed together. It's very common.
u guys know the odds of getting approved on h1b from non profit organization these days?
If the job meets the H-1B criteria, and you do also, you should be fine.

My wife entered to US with L2 dependent Visa and got SSN# with L2-EAD.Meanwhile we both applied and got H1 by employer A which is valid from OCT 06-SEP 09. Although she has enough experience but her medical condition she never worked and neither has pay-stub/W2. Then both of us never travelled out of US. Meanwhile she went India SEP 08 and stayed 5 months. When I went for vacation I got my H1 stamping and she got H4 stamping at the same time and we are in US. Now she got an offer from employer B and he is willing to do COS H4-H1for her. We checked with Employer A and they haven't revoked her H1b till now.
Our questions are
1) Since she doesn't have any paystub/w2, is it possible to do COS?
2) If #1 is okay what are DOCs she or me (if applicable) has to provide.
3) How long does it take to complete the COS if done by PP.
4) How much risk does this case carry/what are the issues she could face?
Really appreciated your valuable answers
Thanks in Advance

Not sure if it has been posted before but I came across this on Ron Gotcher's site. Someone posted it from a Chinese EB3 website. Scroll to page 46 and you can see the waiting list details for EB3-India. Disclosure - I make no claims to its accuracy so don't flame me :-)
http://www.eb3chinese.org/resources/E3+Waiting+List.pdf
Is there an equivalent for EB2 in the same website pls ?

It may be a common thing - swaying away from EB3 to Eb2 for earlier PD holders and there by choking up some EB2 space but shouldn't that cause loosening ( i'm not talking substantial ) in EB3 Priority Date ?
I mean EB3 India Priority Dates seems to have a Coma and that always hover around Aug/Oct 2001 - for last few years its like , it moves like some months and then scrolls down.
seems like it. A lot of people seem to be doing it which is why EB2 is not moving fast enough

Why waste time of such hypothetical issues when we can put this effort in something prodcutive. "Divide and Rule" never works.

If unity is important, how about uniting Pakistan, Bangladesh, Nepal, Bhutan, Sri Lanka into one 'United States of India'. Lot of ROW from these countries will protest. :)

Well it's true and proved here, the ideal mind is an EVIL mind. When the country was split into two in 1947, we still don't have the peace, what do you expect with so many states spiting into countries. Today we see states spiting, just to gain power and make money for the corrupt politicians. For the selfish gains you want to country to split???? Be a Indian..and stop wasting your time.

Do we need photo copies (about originals - having original labor is not possible it would have been submitted with I140; most employer keep the original I140 as well). Some companies dont provide copies of labor or I140.
Is it risky to change jobs and invoke AC21 in this situation? (This is the scenario: labor, I140 is approved. I485 is pending for six+ months. EAD and AP are approved and are with cadidate; have six months pay stubs/tax info to prove that have been original labor sponsored employer for six months after filing I485).
Thanks.

For H4:
USCIS does not give any document stating the fact that AOS is pending. Although EAD is not required to be present in USA, if H4 is not there, only EAD is proof of valid stay.
485 receipt is proof of AOS
So if SSN is not there or DL (or state ID) is expired then you need EAD - EAD renewal is up to you.
SSN has already been obtained on first EAD. Now the question is why renew EAD if one does not intend to work?

My employer is not giving me copy of Labour certificate. I know all numbers. Do I need a copy of AC21
I'm not an expert but thru these forums got the understanding that you dont need a copy of labor cert (if you have its even better). Most employers dont share that anyway - except maybe the desi consulting companies (we may not like them but sometimes for GC purposes I feel that they are ideal companies - atleast they understand what we are talking about).
Regarding I140 - I am not sure but saw conficting opinions - some thought its OK even without a copy of this one too but some suggested its better to get one. In any case having the case numbers would help I guess.
Is I485 receipt may be needed.

I got an approval email from CRIS last week on my I-140.
Today I received an email saying the notice that USCIS sent was returned as undeliverable.
Any one has similar experience? Where does the I-140 approval notice go- Attorney or Employer address?
Thanks
