My company has put BS + 7 as the primary minimum requirement, and MS + 5 as the alternative for my position. The lawyer says that he's going to respond "Yes" to the question "Are the requirements normal to the occupation?". His argument is that for the job title (Senior Software Engineer Team Lead), and the job description (which calls for extensive experience), the requirements are normal. He says the normalcy of the requirements have to be gauged both by the quantitative SVP criteria, as well as the qualitative O*Net description of job duties. While the quantitative criteria restricts requirements to BS + 2 or MS + 0, the qualitative criteria allows for "several years" of experience, depending on job duties.
I have seen the vast majority of EB2 cases not going over the BS + 5, or MS + 1, even though in the real world most employers will ask for much more experience. I think this is just to avoid business necessity issues. My company as well as my lawyer are sticking to the BS + 7 requirement. Let's see what happens. I either have a very smart lawyer at hand, or a very clueless one.

Your situation isn't too tough.
Yes you will need a new F1 visa to re-enter. Nobody knows your chances of rejection, just take all the docs and hope for the best.
If your F1 gets rejected then you can come back on valid H4 - I don't think they will cancel other valid visas. However once you are back here you'll have to again apply for a COS to

Murali,
Your India visit should not affect your gc. I know of several people who have gone out of the country after filing 485 (even without getting receipt). In one scenario, someone's application reached on 2nd and left the country on 3rd (with lawyer's approval). Ideally, you should wait for EAD/AP but according to my lawyer, it is ok to go out as long as you have a valid H1 stamp which allows you to reenter.
The only thing I can think of that can be impacted is your fingerprinting. If you get a notice while you are gone and don't return before the due date, your case will be considered abandoned (it is noted on the fingerprint receipt). To avoid this, inform your lawyer when you leave. They too get a copy of fingerprinting notice and can get it postponed for you if you are out of the country. Also make sure your mail is picked up regularly just in case USCIS tries to mail you some letter/EAD.
As always, check with your lawyer to get final opinion as your case is best known to him/her only.
My 2 cents, hope it helps.

I am a newbie as well and have filed I-485, I-131, and I-765, and they reached USCIS by July 2nd. What happens now?:confused: I mean, I understand we will get I-485 receipt and AP and EAD and might even be called for finger printing. What after that?
EB2 India
PERM submitted in Oct 2006, I140 approved
After the show down of the USCIS and all the high skilled immigrats. USCIS posted that they are withdrawing the July 2nd board. This is great news.
I have filed my I-485, I-131, and I-765, and they reached USCIS by July 13th. According to the new board, USCIS will no long reject them.
So what will happen from now on? What is the procedure after this?
I guess this might be a newbie question. If someone can post some answers for me, it will be very helpful.
Thanks

Unless you have some specific reason, you will face tough question if you go to any other country. If it is Mexico or Canada, they are neighbouring countries and you have a point to argue.

I'm not familar with those adapters, but I've read of limited success.. Ranging from focus problems to using them completely as manual focus.
Assess what those lenses are worth now. That EF 28-80mm f/3.5-5.6 is worth $100 or so, new. To be honest, I don't think I would even mount it on a DSLR as the focal range isn't great and it's slow. The Sigma 100-300mm f/4.5-6.7 is worth $125. The same with this Sigma, it's a slow lens. So we are only talking about $225 in lenses, none are really worth trying to convert in my opinion.
Perhaps selling them on Ebay is in order. Buy the D70 with the 18-70 kit lens and your results are going to be much better than trying to use the converted 28-80. You will have focal range overlap anyways, another reason to just avoid trying with this lens.
Nikon sells a similar consumer 70-300mm f/4-5.6 that is faster and would work with the camera for $125. So if you could sell your two lenses and get $125, you would have the kit lens and this low-end zoom and be in much better shape than converting.
Thanks for joining our community.. Hope this helps!

@zamoo: due to the family emergency, i have already used my FMLA for the current year. thats the reason, i dont see any option. But u are right in suggesting that i should not take any drastic measures. i am still in the process of iscussing my options with my hr dept.
@rams75: I have also considered the counsular processing option. But in case they ask for a employers letter, i will not be able to provide.
Thanks for ur time and advice.

My receipt number begins with WAC too and is with the California Service Center with receipt date of Oct. 5. There was pretty consistent movement until Dec. 18 and though their current processing dates show Oct. 15 since then, I have'nt heard anything as yet. Does anyone have any information on this?

I would be going for my H1B renewal stamping, would appreciate if someone responds to this question.
belmontboy ,
I am in same boat.. I am going mumbai india in feb for stamping. Where are you going for stamping. I heard lately that there is no way we can pre check PIMS. I have asked my lawer but haven't got reply yet.. If you lawer has sent duplicate copy of H1b document to Kentucky Visa center then there should not be issue.( 99.99 % should be safe ).. If not then there is risk involved.

I have mis-placed my EAD. Normally I can just apply for another EAD. But, I will be travelling to India in Mid March on Advance Parole and I'm not sure if I'll get the EAD by then.
My question is, will they ask for EAD upon re-entry.
I am thinking of applying for EAD after coming back. Is there any special processing for applying for a lost EAD ?
Any advice is appreciated.

You need approved EAD. apart from waiting for 180 days. You also need I-140 APPROVED. If you have just recently applied for EAD (2 weeks ago) Do not expect it till atleast early April. It is taking them more than 90 days to approve EAD.
WAIT till you get EAD Approved AND I-140 Approved. Research about AC21 and how you can take advantage of that. Read up threads on AC21. It is going to be a longer wait than you thought.

04/17/2006: CIS Ombudsman Recommends USCIS Director to Issue Multiple-Year EAD
USCIS has already enacted a regulation that allows the Service Centers to issue multiple-year EAD. However, this regulation has not been implemented by the USCIS because of its impact on the USCIS revenue. The Ombudsman wrote on March 20, 2006 his recommendation to Dr. Emilio Gonzalez, Director of USCIS to implement this regulation on the ground that multiple-year EADs would substantially reduce the USCIS immigration benefits workloads and that if impact on the revenue was the hangup for the failure to implement the published regulation which is a binding rule, the USCIS might consider raising the EAD application filing fees. Multiple-year EAD will relieve the customers from substantial inconvenience and hassle each year. The statistics also strongly support the Ombudsman's statement that issuance of multiple-year EAD would reduce substantially the USCIS workload. For instance, the February 2006 monthly immigration statistical report indicates that the total receipts of entire applications and petitions numbered 409,893, out of which EAD applications numbered 100,051, during one month in January 2006. It means one-fourth of total immigrantion benefits applications and petitions were taken by the EAD applications! This reporter strongly and without any reservations supports the Ombudsman's recommendation and justification! This reporter urges Dr. Gonzalez to implement the regulation as soon as possible.
The CIS Ombudsman also recommends the USCIS to issue EAD valid as of the date of the current EAD expiration rather than the date of approval. Current practice has raised pains and aches to the I-485 waiters in two areas: Potential gap between the date of expiration of current EAD and the date of approval of extension of EAD, and loss of some period of existing EAD when the EAD renewal is issued a few months earlier than the expiration date of the current EAD. Again, we strongly support this recommendation as well. For the memorandum of the Ombdudsman addressed to the Director of USCIS, please click here.

I just got my labor approved for Masters degree and 3 years exp.
I have 3 years B.Sc degree and 3 years MCA degree from India and my education eval. shows it as equivalent to MS in computer Science.
In form ETA 750, under section 14, I have following data
College degree required:
Master of Science
Major field of study
Comp Sci/Engg,Info Sys Engg
Experience
3 years
Other fields under section 14 and 15 are blank.
RIR Advertisement has mentioned following
" Must have MS in Computer Science or Engineering, Information Systems Engineering or foreign degree equivalent with 3 years of relevant work experience."
I am little confused about "College degree required:" field. It only says "Master of Science". Should it be "Master of Science Or foreign equivalent"?
Edit/Delete Message
I don't want to scare you, but I think the words "or foreign equivelant" is required unless you have a US degree.
Please speak to your attorney about this.
