I140 Rejection

My I140 was rejected due to educational evaluation.

In India we have a 15 years of education to graduation whereas in USA it is 16 years of education.

I have a 15 years education and had applied for I140 in EB2 category and provided educational evaluation but apparently USCIS has rejected the application stating I do not meet the USA graduation requirement.

 

What are my options do I need to file a fresh labor for EB3 category or can this application be converted to EB3 category.

Pre-college education is irrelevant for this.

For EB3, you need to have the equivalent of a 4-year US bachelor degree. For EB2, you need to have the equivalent of a 4-year bachelor degree + a Masters or 5 years of progressive experience.

Usually in India, BE/BTech's have 16 years of education similar to any under graduation in the US. Do you have bachelors which is of 3 years?

EB2 Based on BS Degree Equivalent Plus 5 Years Experience. Alternatively, EB2qualification includes a position requiring a U.S. bachelor's degree or its foreign equivalent and five years of progressive (i.e. post-baccalaureate) experience.
