I guess...
I called the office today.
Apparently an A-file is created after the I-140 is approved ( I have no idea what the A-file is). Its is very common for a center to have a permanent A-file and a temporary A-file. Previously they were allowed to make decisions based on the temporary A-file. But in January headquarters had made it mandatory to use the permanent A-file. My permanent A-file was at the National record center and was shipped on 10th. And so it will take 1-2 weeks before the officer gets the file and a little more time until he makes a decision. But the IIO did confirm that it is being looked at and that the officer had requested the file.
So that’s where it stands. Don’t know if this helps anyone else but its something I didn’t know about.
Thanks
