Through the use of hypotheticals, this workshop program will explore how to read the cards and recognize degree equivalency issues and ensure that education credentials that satisfy employers also meet USCIS EB-2 or EB-3 expectations at the I-140 stage. Panelists will address agency interpretations and trends in adjudications. Cheri R. Peterson-Ross, Cynthia L. Shearn, Ronald Y. Wada
