Hello,

I have a question on I-140 and I-485 processing. My employer has a pre-approved labor (labor approved in May 2001) and I recently applied for I-140 and I-485.

Can anyone tell me if I will be effected by retrogression? And how my I-140 and 485 are processed, are they processed with priority dates of May 2001 or the date I made application for those?

Thanks for your help
 
You should not be affected by retrogression as the PD for I-285 is the date of labor application filing (even in the case of substitute labor)
 
Which cases are affected by Retrogession?

Hi,

I am also on the same boat. Can you please post whether you got old PD based on pre-approved LC or got new PD based 140/485 filing date with NSC? This will help me whether to accept pre-appvd LC or not. Appreciate your response..Thanks in advance
