Hi Experts,

I am currently in OPT it is expiring by the end of the year. I have applied for STEM OPT extension. I have a legit job and work for financially sound company.


When is the right time to file for H1B?  I think the quota opens April 2011 and starts on OCT. Please correct me and tell me if this is the right way to go.


Another question is my company said they can file green card too. How can they do that?

EB3? I have a bachelor degree :/

I don't qualify for EB2 but I've started working on my masters degree.

Any legal experts can quantify any of the above claim?

Can I just go with the green card process? (They have just told me about it and I have not asked for any details. The company has its own full time attorney if plan to purse this but I wanna make sure from someone outside that I'm not being over ambitious or the process is gonna take forever.

Your comments are greatly appreciated.


Thanks!
