I had opted for consular processing 2 years ago when the priority date was current and there was a concurrent filing avalilable. I thought at that time that consular processing is a fast route to get a GC but as soon as my CP was filed the proirity date retrogressed back to 2001. My priorty...

Thanks Alren for your reply. I have one more question: Is PCC required to be sent as a part of Packet 3?

Thanks Aonflux for the info... Do you know can I send the notarized copies to them or I have to go there personally becuase I live in Minneapolis. Secondly, Do we need to send PCC for Packet 3?

For Consular processing, I need to apply for PCC (Police clearance certificate) at Indian ambassy, Chicago. There is no instruction on their website regarding how to apply that. I am trying to call them but failed as I am getting busy tone always. If any body knows about it please help me...

Q1. Does anybody know what are the filing fees (Not legal fees) for H1B 7th Year extension? Is it going to increase in near future? Q2. My I-94 expires in Aug 2006 but my H1b 6 year ends on May 5 2006. When should I file for 7th year extension?

I cannot change the job till I'll get the GC. There is nothing like EAD in case of CP. I have to wait till my priority date becomes current.

This is just a standard message and has no meaning at all. I had a same status 2 weeks back but the case got approved within 2 months. See my thread "I -140 Non concurrent Approved within 2 months" for details

Yes, I am EB3.... Is there any news as to when these priority dates going move ahead and to what extent. I saw on the website of American amabassy - Mumbai and it still shows priority date as current for EB3 under the Jan cut off date. What that means?

I -140 Non concurrent with an intention to go for a CP. RD - November 5, 2004 ND - November 5, 2004 AD - Jan 3, 2005 It looks like the trend is still continuing of getting I-140 for CP approval fast. Even though my Labour was cleared in 10 months and I-140 got approved in 2 months, I am...

AK_new_member, But you need to file 485 before Jan 1 2005. Am I right? If you have already mentioned CP in your I-140 can you go for 485? Because we have mentioned to go for a CP in I-140 application it directly goes to NSC after approval and then they send packet 3. Can you please tell me...

I do agree to gcsuffer, There is always 2 sides of a coin. Good and Bad. After hearing of retrogression I am fustrated too because I Filed only I-140 with an intention to go for a CP and now as retrogression applies to CP too, I cannot even get a EAD. But this doesn't make a nation bad. I have...

I have seen back in past when people use to wait year or 2 to file 485, lot of people have got their Greencard through CP even though they were not in the priority dates. I saw the priority dates chart on the website of 'American Consulate general - Mumbai' and EB3 still shows as Current. Do...

How this is going to affect CP? I have file I-140 Non Concurrent with an intention to go for CP. Is this going to affect my case? Does Ambassy accepts case before priority date? Does anybody have any idea about this?
