immigration_123 said:Hi My Labor was filed initially in June 2001 by a well reputed software company with employee strengths( around 40-50K).State got cleared exactly in a year.and then Labor got approved in March 2004.
I 140 applied on 13th APril 2004
140 approved on 14 June2004
Got EAD , FP etc although they are of no use to me.
Got 485 approved on 17th June2004.
Looks like any EB2 case which are filed concurrently (I140+485) and that too the cases filed recently(meaning sometime after 1April) will be picked by pilot program at CSC.Thanks

jim24 said:my case is also not pick up by pilot program. I140/I485 rd: 04/12/2004, Nd: 04/15/2004. Had a RFE about H-1B 7 year extension on 06/14/2004. reply received on 06/25/2004, approved on 07/01/2004. Now 140/485 is still pending and will be 90 days by next Monday. Ask lawyer whether my case was delayed because of RFE about H-1B. She replied that was not reason and she will contact CSC whether I am in the quque for Pilot Program and will let me know once she hear back from CSC.
