Let me preface this post with some context: I'm 24, from England and arrived in the US on a H1-B visa in February. I graduated in August 2009 with a BSc degree in business & IT.
I'm currently making some decisions regarding the direction of my life over the next few years. I have many visa related questions, but this one is related to processing times. Considering my background how long would it usually take to achieve permanent residency status? I work with a [fellow] immigrant who seems to think I need to take the EB-3 route.
I have searched the forums but didn't find an answer specific to my situation (recently graduated, [relatively] new H1-B visa holder, etc). Thanks in advance for any help- I really appreciate it.
