how to read the processing time for EB2
Hi KDivekar:
Are you sure that E21 in the processing time table related to the EB2 category applications. I am kind of confused as I got to know that E13 is for EB3 category and I was thinking that E12 is for EB2 category.
Would like to know if your is EB2 with some additional type like National Interest Waiver etc.
Mine 140 is filed in EB2 category at VSC.
Thanks,
SA

Also how would you explain my delay of Jun06, 2002 ND and they are processing July/ August 2002?
I am also under the same impression but only ease might be or the only option in my scenario would be if God forbid if I let go then nothing else except taking the EAD chance and try to keep up on good relations with the old employer. I really don't want to get extension on H-1 because my H-1 6 year would be expiring Oct, 2003. So crossing my fingers and waiting.

Kdivekar I did that on 04-01-03 that
Since I filed concurrent I got the update from my lawyer that he called & they said that since you filed concurrently you have to probably wait for another 4-6 months before the approval becuase all the concurrent cases have been set aside and they will be probably adjudicated together. So that would be probaby close to 1-1/2 year for I140 and 1 Year for I485. I think I shud not have filed concurrent sh...

Well it is a matter of luck, is all i can say. I filed I-140 in June 02 and then teh concurrent filing started in Aug 02 so i was repenting that I could have done concurrent. It's all a matter of time! Don't worry, everything will fall in place! I was just lucky that I filed I-140 with CP option since concurrent filing did not exist then!

First and Foremost a BIG CONGRATULATIONS on completing yet another hurdle.
As far as the next steps (from what I understand):
* In about 3-4 weeks NVC (http://travel.state.gov/nvc.html) will receive your case since you have opted for Consular Processing. check the web site as it explains most of it. If you call 603 334-0700 in about 3 weeks you should get a message that NVC has received the file and a case number will be issued which will be your reference number going forward.
* A Packet 3 will be mailed to you in about 2-3 weeks after the NVC Receipt date (so in about 5-7 weeks from I-140 approval) which you will need to sign, provide appropriate document mentioned therein and send back to the address mentioned in the Packet 3 (but basically to your attorneys who will then forward tot eh right authorities)
* If you wish to move faster with CP you can file I-824 and with the receipt date of I-824 you can request your attorneys that you would like to use what is called Attorney Certified I-140 (AC I-140). Make sure your consulate accepts AC I-140. I know Mumbai accepts and from one of the chats I had with other lawyers, I understand that Chennai also accepts.
* Once NVC receives Packets 3 it is forwarded to St Louis which then forwards the packet along with other information to Mumbai/ Chennai. (add 3-4 weeks here also)
* Once Mumbai/ Chennai/ Delhi has received the packet, they will process it (2/3 weeks) and then issue Packet 4 with a interview date which is generally 4-6 weeks into the future. Interview dates for mumbai are displayed generally 15th of the month on the following site http://usembassy.state.gov/mumbai/wwwhappt.html
From there on it is just planning the interview. Hope this helps! Since we are in the same boat, lets be in touch!

140 Approved
Hi Guys:
My 140 was approved today. I have opted for CP option.
Here are case details.
Processing Center: VSC
Category: EB2
MD:7/29/02
ND:8/5/02
AD:4/9/03
EAC#:EAC02255XXXXX
As EAC is kind of important I am not revealing it totally. But if someone justifies that knowing my EAC# would be of any help to him/her , I wouldn't mind giving it out. For such communication, please write me at samradkar@hotmail.com
I was kind of surprised to see that my case is approved , as according to the latest dates from VSC , my case is not yet current. As anybody could say,VSC is processing cases in kind of ad-hoc fashion and I truely hope that all of you who have been waiting for so long, would get the approvals in near future.
Please feel free to write to me if you have any questions for me.
I would like to know what is next after 140 approval in the CP option. Would like to know the whole process if somebody is already aware of it.
Once again good luck to all of you and have faith in GOD.

Hi All,
I was in US untill March, 2002 and returned to India. The company I worked in US filed for my GC and currently my I140 is applied. Now I'm in India working for Indian subsidary of the same US company which filed my GC. I'm going for Consular Processing. Will be there any problems, does my GC processing get into troubles because I'm in India? Does Consular people think that I may not have that job or my company cann't pay etc?
thanks
