I do not remember exactly but for me probably was about 20 months total counting since getting the HR/partner approval to get the GC. Got it as a manager and non indian/chinese

I cannot comment on the PWC part as I don’t know. What country were you born in? That is the biggest factor to consider (i.e. the Visa Bulletin). Aside from that, it will depend on the USCIS office that handles the petition (determined on your employer’s HQ location or possibly worksite location). There is no premium processing for EB-1C.

I applied Dec 2019 and received my GC in March 2021, so about 15 months.

L-1A, EB-1C, UK citizen, Nebraska SC

Bit of both. All in all it worked out sooner than I was preparing for, so I was pleased.

Also, does anyone know the typical costs if I were to leave pwc straight after ? I assume around 5k to 10k or something ?

Yes, roughly works out to $10k, especially if you have dependents that were also filed for

Any idea how long it takes to get I -140 and I-485 approvals from California center if filed under EB1C?

Does it matter if I don’t meet the specific job requirements when transferring H1B? The job posted requires CPA license but I haven’t got it. The employer is still willing to hire me. I know for PERM process, meeting minimum requirements is important but not sure if H1B have such requirement. I heard that for H1B as long as it’s a position requiring bachelors degree and specifically occupation that should be fine. But kinda worried about this.
