The company is looking into putting us onto an EB2 greencard. Does anyone have any vague idea how long they take? They say current but is that like 2 weeks, 6 months or 12 months?
What are the chances of getting one and do you need an actual masters or can they do it based on 20 years in the industry?

I don't know how long they take at this point in time or whether not having a Masters will be an issue. My OH doesn't have a Masters and has 28 years in his profession and we are stuck in EB3, so I have no clue. I'm sure someone else will be along to give you much clearer information

Hi all,

I just came across this thread...sorry for delay in replying. I could write a book on this topic!

I am a Brit with BSc who has spent last 5 years struggling with this EB2/EB3 conundrum... I persuaded an employer's attorney that I met criteria for EB2 after YEARS of 'arguing the toss' and getting a different Attorney to actually file under EB2 and getting an approved Labor Cert/I-140...now we are finally in AOS (EB2).

Basically if you can prove that you have BSc and 5 years PROGRESSIVE experience in your field AND the job usually requires a Masters degree then you will be able to proceed with EB2.

Timeline: around 8-16 months (very rough guide)

Good Luck
