    Hi NYC2001, Welcome to our new home till we all get out of the GC limbo. From what I have read on different forums it seems NSC is known to issue RFE's whereas TSC does things smoothly. Pretty much same as labor cert, DBEC was approving cases really fast while PBEC made us wait for 2 years...

    Sorry Guys... Need to let out steam and I know this is the only tolerant forum that understand the pain of those who have rotted at PBEC for years. So after waiting for over 4 years to get my LC, and 3 months after that the legal assistant decided to start working today. He's asking for...

    Looks like I am not the only one suffering due to apathy of HR and the lawyers. They are such as****. The lawyer has been sitting on my case for 3 months and finally responded to my emails this week asking me to be patient! My boss used to be an Indian and he was the biggest a**** I have...

    Can you explain this concept of not needing a sponsor anymore? I don't have 10 years but I think I have reached the 40 credits with SSN. Does that mean all I need from my employer is 140? BTW, I am so p*** today. My labor has been approved for 3 months now. My lawyer is still working on...
