ska8586 Posted May 24, 2016 Report Share Posted May 24, 2016 I am a Civil Engineer here in the US on H1b visa (H1b valid from 10/2013 to 09/2019, with extension). My company is filing for my Green Card under EB-2; they have completed the Prevailing Wage Determination and will apply for I140 within 6-8 months. I plan to file the I140 through premium processing. Hence, I should have the approved I140 in 8-10 months from now. After the I140 gets approved and before I485 is filed, can I switch my career to Finance; for example work as an Investment Analyst? I am also pursuing Masters in Finance from a US Higher Education Institution; this should get completed by 08/2017. I am planning to switch after I get my Masters in Finance. Link to comment
JoeF Posted May 25, 2016 Report Share Posted May 25, 2016 If you change fields, the GC process would have to start from scratch, because the LC is specific for your current field. Link to comment
