question regarding Job Title and responsibilities
Hi lawyers,
I have a question regarding Job Title and responsibilities when I switch to another employer after 180 days of filing I-485.
1.9089 Form
In 9089 form under section F (3) it is written as Computer Software Engineer with SOC/O*NET (OES) code 15-1031.00 and under section H (3) it is written as Programmer Analyst and job duties are under section H (11)
2.Approved 9089 certificate
In Approved 9089 certificate, occupation is written as Computer Software Engineer with code 15-1031.00
With what Job title I can switch my employer (confused between Computer Software Engineer and Programmer Analyst)
Thanks,
JD

The requirement for "porting" to a new employer/sponsor under AC21 Section 106(c) is that the new job title be "the same or similar." Similar would include job titles that are in the same general SOC category/area, such as software engineer and programmer analyst. I think you will be fine, but it is always better to have the exact same job title if possible. |
