My 485 was approved in Jun 26, 2005 in VSC, than transf. to Boston District Center where I live. 16 months and no letter for the interview yet. I`m going crazy...

I have filed for my I40 and I485 at 20 October 2004 in Vermont . My I40 has been approved in June 2005. Vermont has also received my FP result. It also shows that they are processing I485s filed on December 1st 2004. Does it mean that I should be expecting to get my I485 approved or the other way in the next two months? Is it a reasonable expectation? I am single and my case has been filed under EB3.

My company applied for my Labor Certification in Jan 2004 and I got my it in 5 months in June 2004. So based on what you said, should I expect to have my I485 approved soon?

I am waiting to get an update on Vermont service center lead times by Nov 8th and see whether it moved from Dec 1st 2004 or not. By the way my company has applied for my visa and I think they will USCIS will only respond to the company's lawyer. I like to call but I have a feeling that calls might irritate them and might cause further delay. Has anyone else the same feeling?
But if I get any update or approval on my case, I will post it and let everyone know.

Your I-485 will get approved ONLY if you have filed your labor BEFORE Jan. 1998.
Since your labor was filed on Jan 2004 (BTW, this is your PRIORITY DATE), you will have to wait until your priority date is current. Based on current trend, that will be a looooooooooong time from now - ATLEAST 3-5 years.
Incidently, my priority date is also Jan. 2004.
Best of luck!!

Good news
Some more hurdles to clear before it reaches Bush's table and he signs, but incredibly good news so far. (Unless I have missed some catch somewhere):
=======================================================
(http://www.immigration-law.com/)
11/03/2005: Senate Passed S. 1932 Reconciliation Bill including Immigration Packet which Senate Judiciary Had Passed
At. 05:51 p.m. (est), the full Senate passed S. 1932 after defeating Byrd Amendment. On the House side, the House Budget Committee just passed the House version of the appropriation bill which is scheduled to the full House action next week. The difference between the House bill and the Senate bill will be resolved thereafter at the conference committee. Please stay tuned!
=====================================================
(http://www.washingtontimes.com/national/20051031-120738-8062r.htm)
The bill's measures would "recapture" 90,000 unused employment-based immigration visas and would exempt family members from counting toward the cap, which is set at 140,000 per year.
Based on past trends, exempting family members would mean an additional 150,000 permanent legal immigrants annually

Please bear with me. What you are saying is new to me. I checked my case in the lawfirm's website. It says that my Labor Certification Priorority is June 10 2003 and the case is approved and closed. I work and live in USA now. Can you refer me to a website or a document that says how Labor certification priority date after it is approved is related to I485 approval?

Based on the countries that you mentioned, I should be from ROW. Can you send me the link for the site? I don't understand what does it mean by 1st, 2nd or 3rd......
http://travel.state.gov/visa/frvi/bulletin/bulletin_1360.htmlWaiting-I485 said:
1- 1st (EB1), 2nd(EB2), 3rd(EB3)
2- PD is the date when your LC was received/accepted by DOL
3- This date appears on I140 (approval Notice)
4- USCIS says, I485 are processed based on PD. If they are not processing, please dont ask why?
5- If your PD is before or equal the date given in bulletin for 3rd category, then your application (I485) is ready to process, when, please dont ask why?
MARCH2001 is Cut-off for ROW (3rd Category). Please read everything carefully and try to understand it.
6- Check always in Employment based columns
7- Each month new bulletin is published, check regularly

i had a substitute labor (EB3)with the priority date of august 2001(Vermont Service center). i live in philly. My 140 was approved on July 5 2004. I applied for my I-485 in the first week of November 2004 and got my EAD within a month. I recently got renewal for my EAD. My immigrationn attoryney said that the retrogession would apply to me as well regardless of when my I-485 was filled. my friends in the office they are saying oppositeA0001 said:
I want to change employer. My new company would be much smaller in size. Its only two years old. They do file green card for their employees & in fact immigration attorney for my present company and the new company would be the same. she assured me that going to the new employer won't hurt my application. I want to double chek. if anybody went through similar scenario, and could share your experience i would really appreciate it. Is it worth taking the risk. What should i make sure about the new company before i change( so it won't harm my application in any ways)?

As someone else said before, your priority data is NOT current (even if it is June 10, 2003) for EB3, even for the "rest of world". You're probably confused about the process (it can be rather confusing). If so, there's a lot of material out their on the web. Try http://www.shusterman.com. Most likely you saw on your lawyer's website that your I-140, I-765 and/or I-131 were approved.

Thanks a lot. That site was a great help. My assumption was that because my labor certication and I140 are approved and I have done medical test and FP, and Vermont center shows that they are processing December 2004 I485 applications and my I485 is filed on October 2004, my I485 should get approved soon. I was not looking at the priority date. But still I have a question and I hope you can answer that too as you did the first one. I looked at the bulletin and From Jan 2005 till almost July 2005 priority for EB3 for the rest of the world was Current that means that I had a chance to get my I485 approved at that time right? But now it shows that the priority date is March 1st 2001 and there is a backlog. Did I get it right? It also does not mean that I should wait for 2 years till my priority becomes current. Next month again the priority for EB3 might change to current and my I485 might get approved right?
