EB2 eligbility for less than 5 years experince

[harik11]

I have 4 years Engineering Degree and i have total of 8+ years of experience

i have 3 months less than 5 years before joining my current Employer and i have been working with same employer

what is the possibility of falling in EB2 classification if my current Employer initiates Green Card ?

or is it better to switch the Employer and use Total Experience to get Classified for EB2

is it possible to be EB2 with current Employer and if so what are the chances

Thanks a lot ,

Hari

You can still use your work experience with the current Employer if the your current job is atleast 50% different from the one that your GC is going to be applied for. For e.g if you joined the current employer as a Software Engineer and yor GC is going to be filed as a Programmer Analyst, you can still use your experience as a Software Engineer if your job duties are atleast 50% different. This is true in case of the example I gave here.

My case was the same and I got my I-140 approved using the experience with the current job.

Thanks for the reply

My Employer has told about the same process to be eligible for EB2,but i am not sure if this process has any negativity for the case,just wanted to know it is a safe option ?

Yes it is absolutely safe and legal.

My case was same and as I said my I-140 was approved in less than 3 months with no RFE/issues.
