Hi there,
Something I heard today from the attorney didn't quite make sense to me (with due respect of course), then again I am not expert in this.

Situation is:
-Bachelors from India (3 year Commerce degree)
-Masters from Australia (2 year course, completed in 3 semisters as I got some exemptions so really 16-18 month course)
-Masters evaluated by 3 agencies here and deemed to be equivalent to US masters. Included in the agengies is one that is VERY conservative.
-Experience (not including this job/petitioner) working 2003-2010

Apparently, there could still be chance that with the above still don't qualify for EB2? Because, USCIS apparently recently is not taking great liking toward a 3 year 'INDIAN' degree. Further, 3 year plus all that experience can not be used to qualify for EB2 given it will be a case that the base Bachelors is not recognised. Of course, the best case they are hoping is the 3 Masters evaluations are sufficient....

I still find it strange though. Even after having the masters evaluated they are saying chances of EB2 may be declined. Put it this way, I know some element of them is just saying 'we are trying our best but it's USCIS who decides'.

Any input, appreciated.

Can anyone share any information or guidance??

All I can add is that my OH had a first class BSC from a top UK university and an MBA from Cranfield and we still got dumped in EB3.....so it does happen.

Wow that's weird. Really. Isn't MBA treated as Masters? Did they not get the degree evaluated ? BSC is there year degree from UK?

Wondering what are my chances with 3 evaluations!

I think it was something to do with other people doing a similar job without a masters and therefore, even though he had one they wouldn't take it into consideration.
