1. The title noted on the labor form was "Associate". On the job description letter, is it ok if the title is noted as "Financial Associate Analyst". Plus my labor was approved as IS Manager. Would the "financial" title cause a problem?

2. My lawyer put a very generic sentence as my job description. Does my job experience letter have to have the exact same generic sentence in it? and is it ok if the letter has more duties on it other than the one mentioned on the labor form (i did different stuff at that job, finance, IT, sales etc)

3. My lawyer put the required degree on the labor form as "Computer Science". However; I have a MIS degree. Is that going to be a problem when applying for i140?

It is surprizing that generic description of a job got through Labor without any questions. There is no clear answer to your questions. General principle is that jobs description should be more or less same as in Labor application. If your Labor was approved as IS Manager with your title to be an Associate, your job is expected to be of management type. Analyst job seems to be a technical job. Clear these issues before your employer filing for your 140 proceeds.

Speaking of I-140, I have applied that along with I-485 during July 2007 and I got approval in mail (hard copy to my attorney) in Feb'09, but my online status still shows initial review.

Will this be of any issue later? Please advise if anyone had the same issue.
