受到本版的幫助,也來分享我的心得
Background when I-140 was submitted:
PhD student in the biomedical field
Citation: about 140
First-authored papers: 2
Co-authored papers: 4
Reference letter: 4: 1 dependent recommendation letter from my former advisor
(Taiwan); 3 independent recommendation letters (Taiwan, French, USA)
Timeline:
2016/05/09 Signed contract with the lawyer (VC) for I-140 (1)
2017/03/02 Submitted I-140 to NSC (EB2 NIW)
2017/12/22 I-140 Approved
2018/01/03 Signed contract with the lawyer (VC) for I-485 (2) (3)
2018/02/02 Submitted I-765, I-131, I-485 (4)
2018/03/20 Biometrics in the local office (Buffalo, NY)
2018/04/20 Case transfered to NBC
2018/05/25 Received EAD/AP combo card
2018/07 Graduated and received a PhD degree
2018/08/01 Moved from NY to CA and started a new job as a postdoc
(using EAD card)
2018/08/11 Changed my address online (5)
2018/09/21 Received interview notice
2018/10/22 Interview (San Francisco, CA) (6)
2018/10/22 Card ordered
2018/10/27 Received green card
(1) 和律師簽約(沒過退費),從5月拖到2016年底才真正開始準備,最困難的部分是找
independent recommendation letter,三封independent, 一個是從phd老闆的朋友
(USA), 另一個是以前學長的同事 (Taiwan), 最後一封是每日一信騷擾引用我文章的大頭
們,很幸運地寄沒幾封信就有人回信了 (French)
(2) 因為I-140經驗不錯,決定和VC再簽約I-485, 但I-485準備過程並不是讓我很滿意,要
自己去催進度才有動作,不是很推薦她們的I485服務
(3) 因為之前有J visa, 但 not subject to 2 year rule.
可是律師一直要我去申請advisory opinion 說是預防 Ref,因為看板上有人申請後反而變
要兩年條款,所以決定不申請 advisory opinion.如果到時真的被REF再申請吧~
(4) 出生證明用原戶籍的英文版(就是出生時的戶籍謄本), notes 寫出生在哪個鄉的診所
, 所以我I485出生地寫XX縣XX鄉,沒被REF,面試也沒被問,另外沒有送退伍令
(5) 今年八月從NY搬到CA,一直在掙扎要不要線上換地址,怕會delay 進度,而且舊地址租
約還沒到期,有人可幫忙收信,但最後決定還是遵守規定去改地址,結果9月底就通知
interview,10月到新地址的local office interview.看起來換地址也不會影響太多
(6) interview 是早上8點,面試官是一位白人正妹 @@
我沒帶律師,整個過程氣氛很輕鬆,office門都沒關 (本來以為會關在小房間內面試)
一開始宣誓,她就一口氣念完一串誓詞,像繞口令,我復頌一兩句就忘了後面,她才笑著說
say yes 就可了
之後 go through I-485的問題
先問出生年月日,父母姓名,出入境多少次.
出入境問題,我忘了事先算好,所以我誠實告知我不記得正確數字只能給個大概
她也說Ok
另外因為換工作.有收走 新的 employment letter, pay stubs, 工作的id copy, EAD
copy, 沒有問工作內容
最後問yes or no 問題, 是跳著問沒有每題都問, 有特別問兵役問題,受過哪種武器訓練
有些問題面試官自己都笑出來 XD
最後當天沒給過,說要review看有沒有缺資料,可能要一個月
但當天晚上online status 就說卡已經ordered
10/27就收到卡了
真是太感謝,這段日子,移民版給的資訊
終於可以暫時不看這個版了~XD
希望我的經驗也可以幫助到其他人
謝謝大家
