  • Eb2 pd portability from employer based to niw

    Hi,

    Background: I currently have EB2 (india) I140 approved with PD of October 2010.*

    Due to the long processing time and being stuck at the same job for so long I was considering different options. I am working at R&D and have several (20) patents. So I thought I may have a shot at NIW (processing myself/ through attorney-not employer). That way it will be easier for me to change jobs, if approved.*

    However I have few basic questions,

    1. If I file for EB2 NIW, will I retain my original priority data (oct 2010) , for my employer based EB2 ?

    2. I am guessing I can file for the NIW , while keeping my current EB2/employer process. If the NIW application gets approved and if the ans to ques 1. is yes then obviously I will convert to EB2 NIW. But if the answer to ques 1. is no, can I have both application active in parallel ?

    3. I am of course on H1 extension based on the approved I 140. If I switch to the NIW based GC do I have to re apply for H1 (if I stay with the same employer) ?
