Hey All, just wanted to share this with you all. I received this info from our law team!
I have my I140 EB-3 ND of 06/08/2002 and my I485 has not got a receipt in 3 weeks! Best of luck to all of us!
Thanks!
"On happier note the Chief of Immigrant Visa Control and Reporting Division of the Department of State has made a prediction for employment-based immigrant visa numbers for the 1 October 2002 - 30 September 2003 and 1 October 2003 - 30 September 2004 fiscal years. His prediction is that with the possible exception of the "other worker" category, all employment -based categories would remain "current".
The third development pertains to the "concurrently-filed" I-140 /I485 cases at the Vermont Service Center. In order to immediately discover frivolous applicants and prevent them from receiving EAD Cards and Advance Parole travel permissions, the Vermont Service Center will first conduct an initial screen of all "concurrently filed" I-140 petitions. If the petition passes this screening, the EAD card and/or Advance Parole applications can be adjudicated. The Vermont Service Center states that this new layer of review will delay the ultimate processing time of I-140 petitions."
