Guys,

I have got my perm approval recently. Now should I go ahead and apply for I 140 or wait for the result of this current initiative of getting the immigration reform which if passed and becomes law, I would be able to apply for I485 along with I140? I am confused because one my friend told me that if I apply for 140 now, then even if the reform becomes law, I still wont be able to take benefit of it since this new law would be applicable for those who would pay extra $500 with their 140 application. And since I am applying for I140 without this extra $500, I wont be able to take benifit of this new law, even if it passes.

Pls help me out if you have any idea about this.

hanks,

what if they put a catch to 140 filings ???

Have u thought of a scenario where they attach strings to 140 filing ?? making it tough to file ?? This advise is a tough one... if u want to take the risk then pls wait in line :)
 
Plus there is a proposal out there to require filing an I 140 within 30 days of labor approval or else labor will not be rendered invalid. This rule is bundled with the elimination of labor substitution proposal.
Plus it would be DUMB for the Govt to allow new I140's to file 485 but not I 140's that have been already approved.
