prasanth2006 Posted March 4, 2013 Report Posted March 4, 2013 I completed master degree in computer science six years ago in US. I worked in US for 3 years. Currently I am in India. Do I have to be in US to apply for green card under immigration reform advanced degree? Please throw some light on this. I can come to US on H4 next year. I work for ********* in India. Do I need a job offer letter from US to apply for green card? THanks.
JoeF Posted March 4, 2013 Report Posted March 4, 2013 There is no immigration reform yet, so nobody knows what rules will apply.
catx Posted March 4, 2013 Report Posted March 4, 2013 There is no immigration reform law. At best there are a few piecemeal immigration bills that have been proposed in Congress. First there needs to be an immigration (reform) bill with the so-called STEM visa provision, and then there are many, many, many steps before such a bill becomes law. Currently, there is only the existing employment based (EB) permanent residency (green card) process, typically starting from a H-1B visa. Any immigration reforms may be in the future -- and there is no guarantee or assurance that they will even happen -- and if they do happen it will be several months away.
