gbroder,
You have to download the "2004.xls" file, save it on your PC, update your particulars, save it and then upload it back up (attach file)
 
Thanks gbroder. All,
Please keep this sheet updated and useful for the folks in the queue. It is the least you can do.

[140 --> Attorney Certified CP] vs [140/485 concurrent] vs [140/485 separate] for EB2

[140 --> Attorney Certified CP] vs [140/485 concurrent] vs [140/485 separate] for EB2 from NSC (Nebraska)

Gurus, please comment on the following assumptions / hypothesis. Your comments will help those of us obtaining labor certifications and getting ready to file 140. Thanks in advance.


After labor certification, EB2 cases under Nebraska Service Center:

1. 140 --> Attorney Certified CP:
Best Case : 1 month for 140 and 2 months for AC CP, Total 3 months.
Average Case : 3 months for 140 and 3 months for AC CP, Total 6 months.
Worst Case : 1 year for 140 and 3 months for AC CP, 15 months.

Risks: Before filing of CP retrogression could occur. Visas could become unavaible.
Advantages: Faster GC. Delays are more deterministic. Even if retrogression occurs for EB 2, new approvals from Dallas BEC are from late 2002 or early 2003. Unlikely retrogression will go back untill then.

2. 140/485 Concurrent or 140/485 Separate:
Best Case : 6 months for GC
Average Case : 18 months for GC
Worst Case : 36 months for GC.


Risks: Could take 3 years
Advantages: If filed concurrent, could avoid the bad effects of retrogression. If NSC really iplements 180 day approval, it will be great. Looks like for new filings this seems to be a possibility.
 
Been a while since I posted here. Just a quick update.

We mailed our EAD renewals on July 22nd (22 days late). We got our approved EADs on 09/06/2005.

Before that I got a fingerprint notice for the EAD apparently. My wife got none but her EAD was renewed all the same.

Should we not get notices for getting our biometric information recorded again? Our EADs still dont have our fingerprints.
 
need help for 485

Here is my situation:
LC: PD:6/26/03 Cat: EB-2
LC: APPROVED:6/20/04
I-140/485 CONCURRENT.RD: 9/26/04
EAD:12/01/04 APPROVED
AP:3/5/05 APPROVED (DELAY DUE CLERICAL ERROR)
I-140:5/10/05 APPROVED.
FP1:(ME AND MY WIFE) :05/19/05
FP2:(ME AND MY KID WITH DIFFERENT CODE):9/26/05

TO MY HORROR, RECENTLY FOUND DUE TO CLERICAL ERROR , I-140 AND 485 WAS FILED IN CATEGORY "EB-3" INSTEAD OF "EB-2". I'M IN A PERPLEXED/shitti STATE , I' want TO UNDERSTAND WHAT MY OPTIONS ARE. I REALLY WANT TO GO VIA EB-2 route KNOWING THE PRESENT SCENARIOS of EB-3.I APPRECIATE IF SOME CAN THROW LIGHT ON THIS ISSUE AND AID ME IN TAKING A GOOD DECISION.

THANKS IN ADVANCE,
SRK
 
srk, To my knowledge, I dont think there is any way to go via the eb2 route without reverting some of your steps. Why dont you start a new thread? Do you have any proof to show the clerical error?
