Program manager EB1?

Feb 25, 2021 3 Comments

I am SDE. My PD is Jan 2021. I was going through March visa bulletin and see that EB1 current is Aug 2020. No chance of getting GC in EB2 in this life.

I have no interest in prod management or people management but thinking of moving to program management will help in moving to EB1 and getting GC faster.

Are entry level program managers eligible for EB1?

If they are, is it possible to move internally to prog management, upgrade to EB1, get GC in couple of years and move back to SDE role.#workvisa #immigration #gc

    That EB1-C for multinational executives or managers category is for people who stayed at a foreign branch of the company as a manager/executive and then subsequently moved to the US office.

    So you are not eligible

    Answer to your question: Yes, if you move international for 1 yr.
    Problem lies in completing your 1 year and getting approved for L-1A visa. Last I heard almost 80-90% of L-1A was getting rejected in India. Idk how true this is though so good luck finding a company ready to do that for you.
