楼主 (未名空间)

刚刚律师和我讨论一个USCIS最近的变化。他说他们可能要拒绝EB2降级EB3的I-140,如果之前的Labor Cert已经过期的化。律师建议我考虑变更EB2到EB3,这样的坏处是我就丢失了EB2 I-40,就只能用EB3的Visa Bulletin但是大概率I-485会被接受。

Filing a Form I-140 That Requires a DOL-approved Labor Certification
If you file a Form I-140 and request a visa category that requires a
Department of Labor (DOL)-approved labor certification, we will review your petition to verify that it contains a valid labor certification. These visa categories are:
• E21, Member of the professions holding an advanced degree or an alien of exceptional ability (Form I-140, Part 2. option d.)
• E32, Professional (Form I-140, Part 2. option e.)
• E31, Skilled Worker (Form I-140, Part 2. option f.)
• EW3, Other Worker (Form I-140, Part 2. option g.)
You must submit the labor certification with the Form I-140 during the 180-
day validity period annotated at the bottom of every page of the labor
certification. We will reject your Form I-140 if you do not include a valid labor certification, unless you clearly state that you are filing under one of the following two exceptions:
• If you need a duplicate labor certification, check the box
marked “Yes – Attach an explanation” at Part 4, Item 8 of the form. Write that request in large, bold font on a brightly colored piece of paper and
place the paper directly under the Form I-140.
• If you are filing a Form I-140 as an amended petition and the original labor certification was already submitted with another Form I-140, check the box marked “Yes – Attach an explanation” at Part 4, Item 7 of the form. Place a brightly colored piece of paper directly under the Form I-140 and write on it in large, bold font that this Form I-140 is an amended
petition and that the labor certification has already been submitted. Also
provide the receipt number of the previously-filed Form I-140, if available.

USCIS一边叫Case少缺钱,一边又要把降级再收一份140的钱的买卖给禁了?

当时律师就说我不能用这个exception。我在网上找了以下复制labor cert的步骤。貌
似理由只可能是“LOST OR MISPLACED LABOR CERTIFICATION”

Procedure for requesting a Duplicate Labor Certificate. ETA-750.
Requests for a duplicate ETA-750 must be initiated by USCIS. The following
steps are suggested when requesting a duplicate ETA-750 through USCIS.
Please include on the top of the I-140, Petition for Alien Immigrant Worker, a cover sheet (preferably highlighted with colored paper) stating the
following:

LOST OR MISPLACED LABOR CERTIFICATION, REQUEST FOR DUPLICATE, DO NOT REJECT

我们公司当时用F家的都是file的EB2 Amendment 降级的。
我就是在EB3绿的。当然当时EB2也是C的。
但是我也有个同事最后降级relink回EB2的 也是EB2 Amendment。
好像没看见谁的EB3最后因为Amendment不能relink back的.
