EB-2 : Where to get experience letters from if I have no prior employer?

[sartaj10]

Hi,
My current employer is filing my PERM application and wants me to get experience letters. Since this is my first job out of school and I have no prior employers, is it acceptable to get these from my current supervisors?

Acc to my lawyers, the Department of Labor typically don't accept letters from the sponsoring organization. I'm not sure how to proceed with this, any help?

Ask your professors to write a letter, which detail your experience gained in classes, project work, etc. This will not work if your job has duties for which you did not gain experience in school.

While everybody is different, I personally know of cases where professors have refused to write them when former students are asking them to essentially lie on record so that it fits what the application needs. So, tread carefully and ask them to write it if it matches your job responsibilities.

And yes, letters from your current supervisor will not be accepted.
