Finally, the processing date has moved to 2004!
But my I-140 approval hasn't come through. My I-140 receipt date is 12/22/2003. I'm aware that I can initiate an official inquiry into my case. To this end I called my attorney this afternoon. He asked me to fax him a signed letter asking him to initiate an inquiry. He said that he would follow up on this next monday. I duly faxed him the letter.
Now I have no idea what will happen next. How does USCIS respond to such inquiries? Do they just reply with the standard message - "The file is with an officer. We will let you know....."? Will they issue an RFE just for the heck of it? What is the general time frame for their response?
It would be great if people who have gone through this respond with their experiences. If an RFE is issued, what would it be? I can confidently rule out education qualifications. My company financials are ok (approx. 6 million). But the year they applied for the labor, they had shown losses ('desi' style). Couple of GC applications were rejected because of that. But other people received their approvals during the same time (go figure..).
I guess I have posted too many questions. Any input into this will be appreciated.
