Re: NIW or OR

The green card process is rather cumbersome and generally requires obtaining a certification from the Dept of Labor as a first step.

More information would be needed to fully advise you but at some point you may want your attorney to look into the issue of whether Labor Cert is required in your case or you can file without one based on your credentials. Pls be aware that the standard is very high.

Re: NIW or OR

please note that in mid 90s it was lot easier to get greencard w/o LC process with your type of qualification. These days it is very hard. Since you have an willing emoployer..Labo cert would be the best solution form you. If PERM gets approved..labor cert will move faster. what is your status now? I am assuming you are in status or under 245 (i) to be adjusted in the states.
