Topic: Got green. Had filed both NIW and EB1-EA

I had filed both NIW and EB1-EA, got green in june based on my NIW petition..

However just got an RFE email update from CRIS for my other EB-1 I-140 petition.

Since I have already received my GC, do I really have to respond to this notice in any way or not ........

any input will be appreciated.

Also playguy

besides manuscripts, try to get that into the letter from your previous institution that (in present and future) you are part of their scientific exchange/teaching program as well.

I agree with you. Your plan should be just fine. This is I-485 not an I-140 peitition.

As in my case, my only problem is that it is a fortune 500 company and so I can only get a traditional EVL, which would show my title as director of same category of researh that i was doing in academia. Rest I plan to provide reports for my ongoing researh at the company.

I did not provide them with any letter. But I did move from H-1b to EAD, plus placed the change of address form. SO that should given them enough room to inquire and conclude that I no longer work with the same instituition.

If you did not change your status and address, that you might as well be just fine and they might not come back with any inquiry.

Thanks for your input. I totally agree and This is the same feedback on other sites where folks just presented a letter of employment and recent publications and got approved. I am not sure where girl7 is coming from??? 10 lb evidence......scary!!!!

I don't think I have to prove at this point any further outstanding nature of my projects and skills. The RFE specifically states that since I moved and no longer work with the University, so ONLY prove that I am still working in the same occupation.
A letter of employment and current research protocols of my present work should suffice well in my opinion.

There are several cases with exact such RFEs on other sites....that got approved and none of them gave this kind of evidence that you are suggesting. IT is I-485 not I-140.......not sure where we are going with this

The RFE specifially states documentary evidence that establishes that I continue to engage in the ocupation that was the basis of my national intereste......evidence may include but not limited to "currently dated letter from your present employer" recent publications/ongoing research.....reent awards and grants etc

I am doing the same research in the industry now as was doing back in academia, so that should not be a problem. I also can provide reent publications and porposals (also from my new job). In terms of letter from employer, I don't think my company (fortune 500) would be anxious to write a specific letter in this regard. ALL I will be able to get is the traditional letter of employment giving my research director title, sallary and the usual offical jargon. As for peers, Also no body in the comany will be willing to write some letter on my behalf with out asking HR/legal

Please advise
