Hi

I have applied for CP and upon checking my status at BCIS case status web site with my lin i got this message:

********************************

Application Type: I140, IMMIGRANT PETITION FOR ALIEN WORKER

Current Status:

Please let me know if you have an idea. It will be appreciated.

Thanks,

Probably this is wrong forum for this question, but anyway...

INS (CIS) needs more information (request for further evidence -RFE) with reference to your I-140. You will receive a notice from them shortly that will describe what documents you need to submit. After you submit those documents they will review the evidence and make some decision on your I-140.

Interview is scheduled only after I-140 approval and the online status message that you saw has nothing to do with interview.

Best wishes,

Jigesh

Sailu:

I totally concur with jigesh and would like to add a couple of points:

1. The correct thread for this question is I-140 which is
http://boards.immigrationportal.com/forumdisplay.php?s=&forumid=14

2. USCIS has issued an RFE. Once you have replied ot that RFE with additional information as requested by USCIS, if USCIS is happy with the provided information your I-140 will be approved within 4-6 weeks from that time.

3. After I-140 approval, it will take another 6-8 months to get your CP interview.So from now you are roughly looking at a timeframe of about 8-10 months to get your CP interview.
