2002 case Certified

My case finally shows certified online just before 5th year aniversary.
Case details are as follows.

ETA Case #: P-05122-XXXXX
Priority Date: 02/20/2002
State: NY
Processing Type: RIR
Case Source: State
Case Closed: Dec-2005
Case Re-Opened: Mar-2006
45-Day Letter: Received May/2006
45-Day Letter: Replied June/2006
Assigned to analyst: Sept-2006
Ceritified: Dec-2006

From what I can see, seems like PBEC really does not care about priority date. It processes the cases in the order of receival of 45 day letters.

Best of luck for all guys stuck in PBEC, especially for those from 2001/2002.

Congratulations to you too..

I spent past 5 years congratulating others, was wondering if anyone will congratulate me :rolleyes:

What next ? as somebody suggested earlier we should start our own 140 forum with same 'homeliness' .

Congratulations - that was necessary to quench your 'thirst'!
Good to see 2001/2 approvals (that's the trend in last 2 weeks) ... cases with older PD need to wait less (or none) for adjusting status.
 
Thanks

NOF Letter

I spoke to someone at pbec and came to know that NOF letter has been issued for my case on Nov16,06. However, neither my company nor attorney has received anything. Don't know what to do... after waiting for almost five years NOF and that too has not been received yet.

Is there any time limit to reply NOF? If someone has landed in the same situation, please let me kno.

No. As long as you have the proper documents which supports the MS Degree and your job requirement needs a MS degree then you should be good to go.

Do people with MS + 0 also need experience letters? I am thinking it should be only for people listing experience as part of the filing i.e. BS + 5 or MS + 2 etc..

I have a 3 yr Bachelors + a 2 yr master's from a US univ, will this create a problem with the MS degree/EB-2 classification?

Hi Gurus,

I want somebody in this forum to take the initiative and start a new thread which is in continuation for the people who get approved here and can move on there for filing of 140/485, if not both even one but one thread. From time to time some one here can let people know where to meet after you clear this level. Does this sound like a good idea just want to confirm.

I second your opinion.

Now that I-140 processing is gradually getting centralized (after Bipartisan Phase II), segregating the I-140 forums based on processing center does not make sense. It is necessary for the new I-140 applicants (recently certified from BECs) to form a new thread (maybe I-140 after BEC / New I-140 etc). The attitude of sharing idea, that was generated in the BEC threads should get carried over to the future stages as well.
 
Thanks!

Khogaye, there is a time limit for NOF rebuttal. Check with lawyer again, else ask him to check with pbec .

My case got NOF in SEP 06, my lawyer never informed me but did send reply to pbec in OCT, got my LC certified this week as per online status.
 
I was in the same boat

Make sure that they send it. My case the Analyst recommended NOF and they did not send NOF.

So ask them if they already send it or it is just a recommendation by Analyst.
Also ask if they send it, the date they send it and the last day to reply.

There are other situations ( like Aycy in this forum ) they faxed letter to PBEC and they send the NOF

So it is case by case basis.

Better ask your Lawyer or HR to enquire about the case.

1 140 thread started

ok people, I have started a new thread for all those ppl who are getting out of this black hole and are ready to support each other patiently thru rest of the journey. (PBEC thread rocks .... let's make our 140 thread rock now)

ImmigrationPortal Forums > Immigrant Visas (Green Cards) > I-140 Issues > General I-140 and Related Issues > I-140 after BEC: How, what, when, where ...

[Those who have cleared labor, please visit the thread above so that we can leave this thread for everyone still waiting and going thru the labor wait.]
