Regular/RIR
RIR is reduction in requirement. For certain categories/skills the govt has accepted that employers cannot find suitable people within USA and so have to depend on getting them from outside. This is a seperate procedure at the LCA stage. RIR applications are given preference in processing but I am not very clear at what stage and how much difference does it make.
You can ask your lawyer as to whether your application was RIR or Regular.
