Can the employer of H1B visa holder intend to hire him/ her permanently and file a Green Card for him/her?
Does work experience w/ the same employer counts toward Green Card consideration?
How about education qualificationi earned during the employment? Can the employer consider this educational qulaification for Green Card?

A company that sponsors an H1B for a beneficiary generally may also sponsor a green card for that beneficiary. Usually, work and education gained while working for the sponsor will not count if the green card is being sponsored for the same job held while the experience and education was gained.

euta_nepali,
1. when you say position is created then the requirement cannot be so restrictive that you are the only one. if you do that then Labor is gonna get rejected. I think they do mention it that the LANGUAGE and specialized skills pertaining to the candidate cannot be part of the job requirement.
2. if you earned your degree before the recruitment for the new position is started. Yes, you can use it.
3. you can use the experience in the same company PROVIDED THAT EXPERIENCE IS FOR DIFFERENT POSITION which requires those skills.
4. you can use all experience from nepal provided it makes reasonable sense. [ is what you write does not make sense to you . then definitely it does not make sense to the reviewing/case officer. say you are 23yrs old and you have 10 yrs or even 5 yrs experience and Masters degree... very hard to comprehend... ]

as always
what do i know (O:

nepal_ko_lato,

=======================================================
once again
what do i know (O:

as i mentioned before.
experience with the same employed can be counted and used for the other POSITION. not the SAME POSITION; even with the same employer.
it has been done before and been done that too many times. yes, it needs a due diligence from your employer in these kind of cases. Because, they have to go through MORE PAPER WORK TO PROVE THE RECRUITMENT PROCESS. that is the reason why most employer seems to shy away from it.
I can provide you name of the lawyer in MINNESOTA who has done it for me.

BTY in your latest thread you wrote:

When you say more paper work what does it imply to? Wha type of docs/process are you talking about? Isnt it same what it is required for current Labor certification requires.
Thanks

Dear Nepal ko Lato,

Sorry for the delay in connecting with you.

If your employer is sponsoring you then they do the filing too in consultation with you. Also one must remember that employer sponsers an employee for Green Card due to the reasons which I have mentioned in my earlier comment. So I do not see any reason why you should worry about your experience. An employer will not spnosor unless they can justify their reasons about your experience during the filing. Additionally an employer will sponsor an employee for the job in which the employee is in their service satisfactorily meeting the conditions set forth by the U.S.Law. So when your employer has agreed to sponsor you, you must understand and be happy to know that your educational background and experience have met all criteria legally. So I advise you to pursue the matter with the employer and wait for the positive result.

Keep your fingers crossed.

Jeevani ji, Thanks. But my employer is not really sponsoring me. I mean they are not much familiar with immigration stuff. Therefore, I have to convince them and prepare them mentally to file green card.

Hi All,
My employer is willing to apply for Green card. I am working there in OPT after completoion of my MS degree. I had 5+ years of experience in the same field in Nepal. The immigration attorney had advised me to go for Green card as I missed the H1B quota. Is my case positive?
Thanks

nepal ko lato,
more paper work means about the recruitment process.

its harder to prove that they cannot find anyone just fresh out of college hoina ra?

more than that u sud talk with the lawyer
