Did anyone file AOS and i140 together (assuming your priority date is current at the time of PERM approval)? What was the process like and how long did it take to get your GC from PERM approval date?

Process is exactly the same. I applied for AOS within 14 days of i140. Perm approval is before i140 so you gotta think about how quickly you and your lawyers can do things. For me it’s been 1 year since perm approval and almost at the end of this journey (fingers crossed)

QQ - I also have a question about the birth certificate. I was born outside India (Middle East) and only have the birth certificate issued from the local Indian consulate. Apparently that’s not enough and you need something from the local government. Did you have any challenges with providing the appropriate birth certificate?

I will know by this weekend. I was born in Kuwait. Got an official translation. If I reached interview am assuming all looks good, inshallah. I got birth certificate, translation and affidavits from mom and dad

Is your birth certificate issued at a consulate or given by Kuwaiti government?

Kuwait registry

Hello Fishes,

I have got my L2 Dependent Visa stamped for the US through the Wife's organization and she has booked the tickets for the both of us in the next weekend. I am currently unallocated in TCS and seeking projects in the same US location as my Wife. Can I travel to the US just like that and then continue my search within TCS from there or do I need any approvals to even fly in the first place?

I am worried because of the time crunch and will be glad to hear some points on this.

Hi all,

I had two technical rounds in tcs last month and now I have got the offer letter from tcs.

But I found one thing unusual that I did not have any salary negotiation call neither any hr round.

They released offer letter directly on ibegin portal with 60% hike on my current ctc .

Should I consider this as a fake recruitement.

Please let me know your thoughts.

Thanks

[I140 app. for Green card transfer] I have an approved i140 application at my previous employer. I have been at Google for 1.5 years and haven't started the GC transfer process here yet.
In an ideal world, I would be quitting this job and moving somewhere else that aligns better with my professional goals in the next 3 months.
Does it mandate me to have transfered my GC to Google or should I wait for the offer confirmation from the new employer and do it once for all there?
