GCWaiting2011 Posted January 17, 2011 Report Share Posted January 17, 2011 I have recently filed for EB2 status after waiting for about 8 years in the EB3 line. My EB2 labor has been passed, however the I-140 has gotten a RFE. The RFE says there is a minimum of 5 years of experience in the job field at the time of joining the company that has filed for my EB2. Here is my education and experience: 1988 - Finished 12 grade High school 1991 - finished Diploma in Engineering ( 3 years course ) after 12th grade , As per Evaluation it is equivalent to US degree 1991 - Work started in Engineering company as a Jr. Engineer in India , gained extra training certificate also. 1993- while working I joined an evening college of engineering for my bachelors degree and finished in 1998 1998--Got my bachelors degree 2001 - Joined a US company on H-1 visa. I am still working in the same company almost 10 years now. In my case if one considers that I got my degree in 1998, then I have had less than 5 years of experience ( bachleors in 1998 to 2001 joining US company date) but if one cosiders the three years diploma course in 1991 ( As per evalution) and the 10 years experience, then isn't it is more than enough for Eb2 requirement (Bachelor plus 5 years )?? Please review this and kindly let me know your views on what I should do. What should I reply to the RFE based on the educational background and the massive amount of experience (>19 Years total) that I have today? I greatly appreciate your help . Link to comment

Attorney_9 Posted January 22, 2011 Report Share Posted January 22, 2011 You and your employer should speak with a competent immigration attorney who has the opportunity to review the USCIS Request for Evidence and all relevant documents in order to come up with the best strategy for proceeding.
