Time for EB2 140 VSC.

What is the pointer? What makes you say that...Just curious..
I'll be happiest soul if it moves forward as before...my RD is Dec 1, 2003..

Thanks
Waiting...:-)
 
Hope you are right

Why do you say that, Mr. J.? I'm sure you have some strong reason(s). Please share them with us. I'll be only too happy :) to see such approvals.

Thanks.
 
Reason for EB2 approvals

Jharkandi,

A ray of hope !!! Just like everyone else I am really curious to know the reason.

Thanks in advance
 
Let's cross our fingers.

I140/I485 ND:07/07/03
EAD : ND 12/09/03 AP 05/21/04
I140 AP : ??????
FP : ???????
I485 : AP : ???????

No change in LUD ever since the the notice date.

I don't know whats going on...

Any suggestions on my case status. ?
 
I140 approved

Jharkhandi is right.
My I-140 EB2 is approved.

My details are:

I-140/I-485/EAD/AP: Notice Date is 11/21/2003
EAD/AP approved on 5/7/2004
I-140 EB2 approved on 8/6/2004
I-485 pending >180 days.

No RFE
No Labor substitute
 
Jharkhandi, any prediction on NSC

J,

What is your prediction on EB-2 I-140s at NSC?
 
aws,

It is not prediction by any means. It is based on scans in VSC485, trackers in VSC140 and then finding out options for VSC - EITHER clear EB2 as they cleared EB3 and thereby reduce load for FO memo + avoid controversy of one class getting benefits versus other not getting it OR put more load on concurrent adjudication as per FO memo. Add to it the speed in which EB3 approvals were done. You will also arrive on similar conclusions. Time will tell how much was this rational correct! But looks like perhaps it fits today's scenario.

For NSC, there is no scan in 485 as such. Tracker is there but not a clean one and no one knows how many pending cases are there(sampled from trackers). It will be tough to make much sense out of it. But still here is what I feel:

NSC has to clear up some cases and send it to CSC and that is same for TSC too. But with FPs done - NSC is more likely to pick speed after Oct 01, 2004. Till then it will be more on 485 approvals. Perhaps NSC is pushing too much - it will fall on face as its past has never been very glorious, if it tries to give FO memo treatment to all cases! More so when VSC and CSC are cautious about it. (VSC has cleared goodnumber of EB3 till March 2004 it seems and CSC is doing pilot.)

If you will see - you will note that 485 approvals are coming in all service centers for backlogged cases and looks like once they reach target for 2004, then only they will start with FO memo simultaneousy. VSC is already close to target so it is concentrating on 140 cases.

But finally it is one man's analysis - do not loose your sleep over it.
 
Mr. J. Do you think we are still on track with your estimates..I haven't seen any new I-140 EB 2 approval after the last one posted in this thread...

This wait is just too much for me...as it is so close...my RD Dec 1, 2003.

Waiting_waiting and waiting...
 
jarkandi analysis was right in my case atleast long awaiting I-140 approved 08/12/04 hurray. keep up the good work, Thank you for keeping our hope alive.
Concurrent filled:
I-140 09/10/03
I-485 09/20's/03 No FP.
EB2

I have another observation have seen someone get I-140 clear as soon as they applied for EAD renewal guess what mine went out on 08/09/04 so i dont know hard to predict VSC but all for good.

Good luck all

I am not a lawyer and the above info is strictly my impression.
RK :)
 
Looks like VSC is still focussing on EB3(I-140) cases as I am seing EB3 approvals for Mar'04. When they are going to touch EB2 ? May be we have to wait for another couple of weeks and hope they will start processing EB2 once they reach Mar 31'04 for EB3 cases.
