I140 EB2 8 Day Premium Processing Approval for Manufacturing Company Petitioner and British Engineering Manager Beneficiary in Cleveland Ohio

CASE: I-140 / I-907 (Premium Processing)
ISSUE: Had to get the I-140 Approved to Be Eligible for 3-Yr H-1B Extension
EMPLOYER: Molded Component Manufacturer
BENEFICIARY: British Engineering Manager
LOCATION: Cleveland, OH

Our client is an engineering manager from the United Kingdom, who is currently working at a molded component manufacturing company in the greater Cleveland area. The company/petitioner was willing to petition him for a green card, in the second-preference category (EB2).

Our client has a Bachelor’s degree and has more than 5 years of related work experience. He has maintained his status as an H-1B visa holder in the United States. The issue is that he can only renew his H-1B after an I-140 petition is approved.

After talking to our client, our firm advised that his potential employer can petition him as an Engineering Manager, specifically, Liquid Injection Molding (LIM) Process Engineering Manager.

Prior to filing the PERM labor certification application, our firm prepared the prevailing wage request, job order, advertisements, internal job posting, recruitment report, and all other steps which are important pre-PERM filing. As mentioned on our previous success story, we filed the PERM labor certification application for our client on August 8, 2012. Two months later, on October 10, 2012, the PERM labor certification was approved. There were no audits in this application. Our client retained us again for the I-140 petition.

We then proceeded with the I-140 Petition filing. We submitted the “ability to pay” letter for the I-140 petition application. We included the job offer letter, employment verification letters from our client’s previous employers, and other necessary supporting documents.

The I-140 Petition was filed on October 31, 2012 via premium processing. On November 8, 2012, in only eight days, the I-140 EB2 for our British client was approved.

Now, not only can he file for a green card (could have been filed simultaneously, but priority dates were not current back in October), but he is also eligible for an H-1B 3 year extension.
