RFE: Educational Evaluation for PERM/I-140

[krishna1990]

I want some advice with regards to my complicated story.

Some background:

1) I have Bachelors of Science in Chemical Engineering

2) I started working in IT, and then moved to finance strategy after internal move

3) I got H1b Extension after 3 years without any trouble, but now I tried to switch and got an RFE on my H1B amendment.

4) I got RFE for Beneficiary Qualification and submitted an expert opinion letter, which triggered another RFE about the evaluator's experience. The new company pulled my offer , and decided to not respond to 2nd RFE and also didn't give me any docs or more details.

Now, I am thinking a H1 xfer wont happen so better to do PERM/I-140 at current company. BUT I am worried that I will have same problems with education evaluation when I go for I-140?

The PERM will be with occupation title 'Economist' and job advertisement is going to list 'Bachelors in Finance, Economics or Engineering, plus work experience' as the minimum requirement but I am not sure if this will suffice?

Any advice would be appreciated.

The H1 job needs to be in your area of study.

Same with the GC.

Does the employer have a lawyer? I doubt that a lawyer would come up with that job advertisement. It would very likely generate RFEs

I highly doubt that the Economist job position requires an engineering degree in Chemical engineering. That doesn't sound anyway close to reality.  Hire a good immigration attorney. Good luck.
