Hey GCVaruma.

My labor was filed through PERM in the EB3 category in the middle of August 05. The labor was approved in the middle of October 05.
My priority date is August 18, 2005

Fortunately, I had no RFEs. Also, this was my first LUD after the initial filing LUD

Let me know if you need any other information.

best of luck to you and all other members/reader of this forum.

Congratulations to all for your 140 approvals...

My I140 application was filed on April 22nd 2005 and now VSC is processing July cases and I am still waiting for my approval.

I talked to my attorney about this and requested her to enquire my case deyails with VSC for the same and she is saying that the processing center go by the processing days (i.e 90 and 485 days) that was listed in the case message rather than the VSC processing dates. I am confused and wondering whether you have any insight or any additional information related to this.

Thanks in advance....

This is the latest status of my I140 case from the website...

Your attorney doesn't sound to be that helpful. I have read from forums by some others that their attorneys contacted USCIS when the processing date was up and they did not get an approval. I read that the checking on the case helped- they were doing sometimes through senators. May be you can try the senator thing
 
quit before 140 approval

Do anyone of you know of anyone who quit the company before the I140
approval itself when filed 485/140 concurrently and still got the GC through that company. If the employer is
not the kind who would harm, do you think it is okay to leave the company
before the I140 clears itself if it is 6 months past the 140/485 filing?
Please tell me what the consequences could be if you quit a company
before the I140 approval with them

I wouldnt do it if I wanted to keep my priority date.
As I understand the law (and I am not an expert, so talk to an attorney) this can be a problem. Of course, GC is for future employment so technically you can try to make an argument that you will work for this employer after GC is approved but from what I understand thats a very tough sell to USCIS.

Worst case you have start all over again. These days PERM helps get your Labor thro quickly but priority date is always going to be a sticking point.

Does any one know what would be waiting time (in terms of day) before one should contact USICS and ask them why file isn't approved/touched ?

If confusing then let me give example. Lets say right now VSC is processing July 2 cases. and my lets say my case is filed on July 2. Now how many days should i wait till i enquire with VSC for my case ?

arey mamu

ye toh ekdam jhakas khabar layla hai. tera shytle ekdum sholid tha... apunko apna muhala yaad gaya... kabotar khane ke bagal mein...

for all those who didn't make sense of that, it was just friendly nostalgic banter spurred by the greeting that AJ used in the original message.
Nothing serious.

thanks and lots of luck to everyone here.
good news is that the senate is probably preparing to put out something on the floor by Feb2 with regard to the much anticipated immigration packet potentially increasing visa #s for legal immigrants to be included.
There was news on www.immigration-law.com about this possibility.

Thanks Mamu :) Sometime we ONLY have to rely on forums to speak our beloved language :) coz its rare to find mumbaiya where i live :)

As per latest update by immigration-law , Senate Committee action on immigration legislation may be pushed back until later in February or perhaps into March. Well lets hope when ever it comes on floor its passed and bring good news for all of us.

You'll need to wait until VSC report says 'processing August 2 cases'. That's what 30 days means. IMHO

First of - congrats!
the email came from VSC itself or it's an attorney who received the hard copy?
And what was your priority date, if you don't mind telling?
thanx

Thanks for the information and I am requesting my attorney to call VSC and if she is not going to check with them, then I will go through senators...

Good News for Visa Movement

AILA has reported the DOS advised AILA that "thanks? to" the decrease in demand for EB visa numbers from USCIS I-485 cases and 245(i) labor cases still being held in the Department of Labor, the visa number would progress forward as follows:

Worldwide EB-1 and EB-2: There will be no need for a cut-off date for the thesee categories.
Worldwide EB-3: Unlike the DOS previous prediction that the large number of 245(i) filings would be filed during March and April 2001 and it would result in a surge EB-3 number demand and would limit movement of the cut-off date, 245(i) cases still remain at the DOL and therefore there will be some movement in EB-3 visa numbers.

India EB-1 and EB-2: It will continue a rapid movement for the next several months.
India EB-3: It will move ahead but may become limited down the road.

China EB-1 and EB-2: It will continue a rapid movement for the next several months.
China EB-3: It will stay at the Worldwide date.
