Oct 2005 I-140 filing at CSC

Hello,

My I-140 was filed at CSC on 15 October 2005 (RD). EB-3/Own labor/PD: 12 March 2003/Indian national.

I do not see any ND, LUD info etc. when I check online. From one Q to another...but not being able to file I-485, EAD, AP sucks big time.

Cheers,

Which state will you file your I-140? Which category do you belong i.e. EB1, EB2, EB3 etc.

Here is the link to check current processing of I-140 at CSC.

https://egov.immigration.gov/cris/jsps/Processtimes.jsp?SeviceCenter=California

Even though above link shows June-July 2005 date, generally it takes about 2-3 months to process.

hi jayraj7,

3 months is what i have read from this forum and what my lawyer told me in the past. however, there are many people filed their 140 and 485 in july 2005 at CSC have not receive their 140 approval. i just checked with my attorney this afternoon, and he mentioned recently all he got was family based 140 approvals. so to answer your question i think we still have to observe a few more weeks as 3 months may seem to be too optimistic.

hope this helps.

RIR vs NON-RIR

Hi shagua,

In I-140 processing, does EB2/EB3 matter? Are they being processed in different time frame? my question is does eb2 I-140 get processed much faster than EB3.

as always thanks again for ur inputs.

There are different queues for EB2 and EB3 category. RIR and Non-RIR does not matter. For current processing time visit following link:

https://egov.immigration.gov/cris/jsps/Processtimes.jsp?SeviceCenter=California

As per above link California is processing
EB2 category I-140 filled on or before July 29th 2005
EB3 category I-140 filled on or before July 18th 2005
 
any predictions???

So, with this speed, when do you think me and you will get I-140 cleared?? any predictions??

Due to holiday season, my best guess is by March 15th 2006 we both should get I-140 approved provided we don't get into RFE trap.
 
what do we do after march15th?

assuming that your predictions come true, what do we do after march 15th? do u think that most of them who applies I-140 gets RFEs??? It really sucks to be in this painful process, for my labor PD, if i was in DOL i could have easily got my labor and filed concurrently..unfortunately the damn thing went to DBEC and got struck there. and it just came out after one month of retrogression happening..

Most probably, there would be some law change because of huge retrogression and hopefully we will be able to file I-485 by that time. If not, then we can just pray to God and keep patient, which we have done so far.

As per my analysis, 15% to 20% of the cases get one or the other RFE. Examples of RFE's are Education, Ability to Pay, Experience, copy of labor rather then original labor but the good part is most of the RFEs can be overcome if addressed properly.
 
thanks a lot..

thanks a lot for your inputs. I appreciate your insight in all these problems..
