Slaviki,

Phone # for checking individual case status on AVM : 415 975 4617.
(and followed by 1,1 when prompted)

Phone # for checking general status on AVM : 415 975 4601
(and followed by 1,1 when prompted). This# just gives general idea about what is happening.. and what dates they are processing.

It looks like they are processing April 28 cases as of Monday July 18. (Only one case exists for Apr 30), which means that they are on to Apr 28 cases atleast previous week. May be AVM is not updated with the latest certifications.

I checked my Case# for April 28th. Still Received status !! :mad:
Hope they will update the AVM soon....
 
Need help

Hello guys:
I need some help from you guys.

1. If pre-approved labor is used, is it necessary that applicant's MS/BS degree has to earned before the labor approved date?
For example: if the labor cert. was applied for an applicant who has MS degree and the LC is apporved. The applicant leaves the company. Then can this labor be used by another employee whose MS degree is earned after the labor apporval date?

2. In regular processing center (state) what is date that they are processing now?


Thanks so much

Yes, as well as those of us from even earlier!

PD: 5/20/02
RD: 4/11/03
case#: 095595xx
AVM status: "Recieved" (when I can get it to work!)

No letter, no nothing. Did someone say they are closing SF DOL office? Where is that info?
 
Hi theteeset,

Could you ask your attorney to send an inquiry regarding your case? and see waht they say about the skipped case? I guess attorney's can talk to the DOL directly.

My attorney's do not respond, and do not entertain these kind of things :( I can't do this from my attorney's....

Thx.

Possiblity of new VISA numbers from Lottery quota for backlogged EB categories

Immigration reform continues to be a focus of activity in Congress, with the introduction on July 20 2005 of a new initiative by Senators John Cornyn (R-TX) and John Kyl (R-AZ), the "Comprehensive Enforcement and Immigration Reform Act of 2005" ("CEIRA") (S. 1438). Among other things, the bill contains provisions for temporary workers, worksite enforcement, border control and other reforms.

If enacted in its current form, CEIRA would do the following:

* Eliminate the diversity visa lottery program and distribute the 50,000 lottery visa numbers, along with unused visa numbers from past years, among the employment-based immigration categories that are currently backlogged.

Can't apply for i485 untill the next fiscal year (October 1).

Can still apply for i140. Looks like they are currently looking at April 2005 applications, so it does not look too bad...
 
Congrats!!

Congrats! and good luck in next stages.

Can you give more details abt yur case? EB2/EB3, When did u know ur case is certified, is it through AVM or by notice from attorney/HR.
