I-140, EB-1, processing times?

[panenka]

Hi,
I have just submitted my I-140 for EB1-EA. My understanding is that generally it will take around 6 months to know about the outcome of my application. Is that correct? Should I expect any communication before that?

Why then on the Texas Service Center, as of today, it says that they are currently processing applications from August 2007? That's more than one year ago. Am I missing something?

Thanks for your answers.

it does take a year or more these days.

Thanks!
That is much longer than what I expected from the recent experience of a couple of colleagues who went through it. Has something changed lately or is there a big dispersion?

Thousands of cases can be followed.
Typical time in the last year for EB1-EA I-140 seems to be 300 days.
