EB2 NIW to EB3

[shruthi745]

Hi,

I am a physician filed for green card in EB2 NIW Indian citizen. 

Can I downgrade to EB3 with same employer( As EB3 filling dates is moving faster and could get EAD atleast)

If yes then Do I need to start the process from the beginning or is there any amendment?

Your responses are greatly appreciated.

 

-Thanks

Yes, you can port your PD but your EB3 will have to be separately approved - obviously. If you're serving in an undeserved area and your NIW is based on that, then it may not be so simple.
