If that's the case, it should definitely qualify for EB2... I am not an Attorney though. I wish you good luck.

Congratulations on your job offer bro! Looks like you are perfectly eligible for EB2. I have a question for you: Given that you qualify for EB2, do u plan on applying for green card through EB2 directly or apply for h1b first? Is it possible to work apply for EB2 and work for a year on OPT? Isn't the wait time for EB2 less than 1 year?

@Slok
I've consulted with Attorney and he wants me to apply H1B first and then start the GC process because going through EB2 directly from F1 may have problem because of F1 intent to return to Home after completion of degree. H1B has a dual intent so its a good idea to go through H1b-Eb2. That's what my attorney suggested me.
