No chance, EB1 is the new EB2

No chance.. check the visa Bulletin for September.. it clearly says coming back to Feb 2017 itself has very remote possibility.

Right there with you SPM1

Hoping against hope for some positive news somewhere 😥

Why be bitter? You gained excellent work experience, now in London too and then once you get to Canada and if you still want to work in the US get your citizenship and come over on a TN-1.

You’ll still be far ahead of your peers who are waiting on the elusive green card.

EB1 India is expected to be Unavailable for at least the foreseeable future. It’s oversubscribed is what everyone is saying.

When was it current until March ‘18? My PD is March ‘17 - still waiting :(

Sorry what’s Eb1 or Eb2 ?

can we port PD from eb3/eb2 to eb1-c. i have 2011 PD and -100% chance of getting PD current in next 10 yrs. my kids will age out by that time. either i have to move to different country or get eb1

Eb3 to Eb2 - Yes; Eb1-C is not portable - look online for the requirements.

Thanks to Cognizant for filing EB1 for every Tom Dick and Harry to clog this category as well.

Need a level headed take on this— what is up with pharr rd? I saw a apartment complex on that street that looks really nice on the outside and the inside but I keep reading that pharr is “”sketchy”” which doesn’t seem to jive with my impression of it. Not trying to come off stupid or sheltered, but im from Wisconsin lol so I don’t have a good gauge for such things

NOW they assessed a penalty and was told the call center can’t fix this after. I called in July to get this done before deadlines. What can I do.

Hi 🐠, need your help/suggestions. We moved into our new townhouse 4 months ago and I’ve been noticing a car parked outside with 3-4 (young folks) people sitting in it for past 3-4 weeks. Today they took it to another level when someone from that group was peeing right in front of my backyard. When I was about to talk to them they left in a hurry. What should be doing? I’m first time homeowner so want to make sure I’m not doing anything wrong

It seems like everyone is in agreement that switching firms gives you a salary boost, but that you could be viewed as someone that doesn’t stick around. Has anyone felt like they got held back from jumping firms every 2-3 years for the salary bump? I know peers that bounced around 2-4 times in a 7 year span and they are making significantly more money than if they stayed at their first job, however it didn’t seem like any of the new companies cared that they bounced around. Other experiences?

I have been getting calls from someone who introduces herself as an employee in my company from US office. She tells me she is visiting India for a meeting and her outlook is not working here, so she asks me to share contact numbers of some of senior partners in other teams. I am confused on what to do? I have been avoiding her calls since past few days. She told me she got my number by mistake as she asked for a contact from transport team in the same name.

I have moved to another country and haven’t been back since. but just found out that my uncle overstays in my parents bedroom. To the point that he sleeps there at nights and my mom has to sleep in another room. My dad doesn’t say anything. We are a joint family and at this point I think my uncle is just abusing his status of seniority in the house. So disturbed since I found this out. How can I help my mom?
