Some suggestions to new people who plan to apply for green card:
Do not use Eb1b-OR/OP. If you can apply green card in Eb-1B, you should be OK to apply for green card in Eb-1A. Try your best to use Eb-1A-EA. My employer took 2 years to submit my application. I also got RFEs from USCIS for permanent position, for both I-140 and 485. NSC officers are really experts in issuing such RFEs. Almost everybody that I know in Eb-1b category got at least one RFE letter, for both I-140 and I-485.
I was wondering if gctrail can help me input these message into his/her website. Thank you.
Good night and good luck to everyone here.
