CSC Liaison Meeting Summary For August 27, 2003 (09-16-2003)
Adjudication Priorities
The priority for adjudications until September 30, 2003 is that of religious worker cases. It is anticipated that in October 2003, the adjudication of adjustment applications (I-485s) will resume at a faster pace (perhaps double). It is also expected that in October the adjudication of Employment Authorization Applications (I-765) and Advance Parole Applications (I-131) filed concurrently with I-140/I-485s will be faster, so that eventually these applications will be adjudicated within 45 days..
By the end of September 2003, it is hoped that H-1B visa petitions, except for extensions, will be processed within 90 days. H-1B visa extensions should be adjudicated within 4.5 months and eventually by the end of this calendar year - 90 days.
However, the processing time for Immigrant Visa Petitions (I-140) will be delayed.

485orCP???
Hi guys,
I didn't think about I-485 until I saw the recent delay of I-140. According to the previous information, I-485 may take 3 to 4 years in CA, so I didn't file I-485 cocurrently. However, the situation seems changed and CSC has stopped the I-140 process for almost 4 months. What do you guys think? Do you think it's better to file I-485 cocurrently? Is that possible in the near future it will take only couple months to process I-140/I-485? Please advise.
