Congratulations! Did your LC case reach regional office before it was transfered to Dallas? When did you receive your 45-day letter? Thanks!

case number? What do you mean by case number? The number assigned by Washinton SWA or BEC? Thanks!

If the data are taken from DOL disclosure database, the number only includes the cases that received by regional offices. As I understand, CA has most cases in the database means CA SWA office is most efficient among state offices. Keep in mind, other regional offices have cases from multiple...

GP111, Are all the cases listed here still pending or the list includes certified cases? If they are all pending cases, assume they are evenly split between Philly BEC and Dallas BEC and 90 cases/day in each BEC (based on the info given by Iracus), it will take about 125 work days to clear up...

Since EB3 visa number retrogressed and EB2/1 visa number was predicted to retrogress at any time now, I believe there are a lot of H-1B holders like myself start to worry about losing Priority Date(PD) no matter due to change of employer, or job location, or EB catagory, and so on and on...

I have been working for the same company in two different states. My first RIR was filed in 2002. My second RIR was filed to the second SWA last October. I am talking with our attorney about converting the second RIR to PERM. But Our attorney doesn't recommend to convert my RIR case to PERM...

I didn't find on the visa bulletin the EB3 cut-off date for Jan. 2005. Could you let me know where the cut-off date is indicated. Thanks!

There is no need to track it any more. It has been stagnant for the last three months in MN SWA from what I observed. http://www.deed.state.mn.us/flc/priority.htm

Does International Exective belong to EB1? If somehow we can take that route, is there visa limit? Thanks!

Think about it. It is a great deal for them. The H-1B workers didn't spend the country's money to get their education. They pay all kinds of taxes, but when they lose their job, they don't get unemployment benefit, and they may have to go back to their home country such that lose all their...

The reason for having both LC running is you never know which will come through faster. Before the memo DOL sent to SWAs, my second LC will definitely go through faster. But after the memo, things have changed dramatically.

In case your Chicago case is approved they will withdraw your Houston case then file I-140 with your Chicago LC. If this is the case, did your attorney say whether you need to move back to work in Chicago to keep your green card process valid? I have two LC on file. One was filed in the...

This is purely my personal opinion based on what I understand. It may be wrong. Please talk with your attorney about the options. At this moment, forget about RIR. It won't do any good. Before, people file RIR because it is faster. But if you file now, you will be the bottom of all cases in...

Thanks a lot!

I have been working for the same company, but at two different locations. The company filed LC for me from both locations. One of the two has much earlier priority date (older LC). I am not sure which LC will come through first considering all the significant changes with LC process. If the...

This is a DREAM act or dreamed act?

Mr.Kerry won't improve the immigration situation, because we are taking American's jobs. However Mr. Bush will make it worse, because he is going to let all the illegal people join the legal immigration process without adding resources, which means longer waiting time. This is just my opinion.

Thanks! So as long as I-140 filed for 6 months, we are OK to change job? If I want to change my job or get fired after I filed my I-140 for 6 months, but I am in my 7th year H-1B, do I still get a chance to work else where in the US with H-1B?

If filing I-485 is limited by priority date, what will happen to LC portability? I can't remember it is portable when I-140 filed for 6 months or I-485 filed for 6 months. It doesn't matter for now because I-140 and I-485 can be filed concurrently.

Just thought of one more question. If Philly and Dalas BRCs will process local cases first, Vermont Center and Houston Center should see the hike of I-485 petitions sooner than other centers. Does this mean Vermont Center and Houston Center will have cut off date set earlier than other centers?
