Thanks a lot.

Any comment on EB-1 eligibility?

How can I get in touch with you outside HN?

Thank you.

Hi Peter,

Sorry to bump this [0] -- I know you have a lots of new questions to answer. Before you finish today, I'd really appreciate if you could please leave some comments on EB-1 vs employer sponsored GC from eligibility, timeline point of view.

Thanks a lot.

Sorry. My email address is in my profile and you are welcome to get in touch with me. In short, an EB1A GC application is a lot faster but the standard is much higher than a PERM-based GC application.
