Processing Times for Atlanta Region

I am having H-1B visa which will expire by Aug 2005.

Another Employer has filed for Labour Certification for me in florida state.

When I checked the status, it is showing that my case has been transferred

to regional DOL (Atlanta) in the fisrt week of september 2004.

According to the Processing Times of Atlanta region currently they are

processing the cases of March 2003. So my turn may come after 18 months,

by that time my current H-1B will already be expired.

My queries are as follows.


1. Will my current Employer be able file for my H-1B Extension even though
another employer has filed for labour certification..?

2. Are there any chances that, my case will be evaluated before 18 months...?



Thanks in Advance

---yes, if that LC has been pending for 365 days

2. Are there any chances that, my case will be evaluated before 18 months...?

----yes, by some weird reasons, some cases has just been certified after only 5 mos.



Thanks in Advance
