Friends,

just learnt from AVM announcement that my I-140 has been approved on Dec 31st \'01. Following are the details:

RD: 08/21/01
ND: 09/12/01
EB-2 Category
AD:12/31/01 (yet to hear from my attorney).

This forum and all you friends have been very helpful in sharing information. Wish you best of luck, and hope all your cases get approved very soon.

See you people (those applied for CP option) in CP forum next, as I have applied for CP. But the recent announcement regarding change of procedure in CP (Pkt-3 and 4), seems to be also very frustrating, and delaying the whole procedure. Anyway, wish you good luck.

Thanks,
MBM
 
Congrats MBM !!

Mine is WAC-01-295 so I hope it is on the way soon.
What do you mean by the change of procedure in CP ?? I have also applied for CP so would like to know.
 
DOS Changes Immigrant Visa Processing Procedures

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
The U.S. Department of State (DOS) announced that the Immigrant Visa
Packet
System, utilized virtually without change for forty years, is now being
changed. This announcement was issued in mid-December 2001. These
changes
apply to those who are processing their "green cards" through the
consular
processing option, whether in family- or employment-based immigration
cases
and will not apply to those processing adjustment of status within the
U.S.

The reason for the DOS change is that "the ease with which information
can
now be maintained and shared electronically makes the linear, rationed
approach to immigrant visa information less useful." The former
Immigrant
Visa packet system is being eliminated in favor of a simpler system of
standardized mailings. The new system will utilize the Internet and
other
electronic sources, when appropriate, according to the DOS
announcement.

The specific instructions will be released as part of an update to the
Foreign Affairs Manual (FAM). Essentially, the numbered packet system
has
been eliminated. The packets will be replaced with standardized
information
sheets. The former "Packet 3" has been renamed "Instruction Package for
Immigrant Visa Applicants." Former "Packet 4" is now "Appointment
Package
for Immigrant Visa Applicants." "Packet 4a," which is the mailing that
initiates the termination process, is now "Follow-Up Instruction
Package for
Immigrant Visa Applicants."

New information sheets have been drafted and are available to
appropriate
DOS officials. The old OF-169 (Checklist of Documents), which was
renamed
DS-2001 last year, is now a redesigned information sheet entitled
"Instructions for Immigrant Visa Applicants." This document will be
part of
the new "Instruction Packet for Immigrant Visa Applicants." The new
form has
not yet been approved.
 
Thanks MBM !

Most of this just seems to be in the forms.

But there seems to be no changes in the process as such apart from the requirement to get Police Clear Cert.
