VSC August'02 I-140 tracker

labor substitution

Hi,
My company has agreed to file my I-140 using a approvaed labor certification they had before.

Can I go for CP or should I use the new law and file 140/485 together. which one is better?

Thanks
Vivek
 
labor substituion reply

Unless you are in a situation where your H-1 is going to expire some time soon, I would not go for concurrent filfing of I-140/I-485 together as your labor is already a substitute.

And, CP is not ebing recommended on many immigration websites.

So take the normal route and you'll be fine.
 
Hey icemn24 => why would say that " And, CP is not ebing recommended on many immigration websites. " .

If one has all the papers, what is there to worry about?

interesting news

It seems the HQ has instructed regional service centers that they need to complete 140 processing in 60 days. But on the other hand people who have filed in April dont have their approvals yet.

Hopefully things will improve pretty soon.

Good Luck y'all
 
Yeah there is no sign of increase in speed!

Hey Iceman,
I really doubt whether that 60day - rule has come into effect. I haven't seen any information on this any other website. My I-140 was filed about 90 days ago. Waiting eagerly for the approval.
 
What happened to my petition then?

According to my lawyer's assistant, they filed my petition in ealry June, 2002. But so far I did NOT receive any RD notice. What has gone wrong with my application?

Thanks,

XL
 
Hey guys:
Mine is EB2 Category. Does any of you know how much time it takes for 140 Approval in this category. My understanding is it should take lesser than it takes for EB3 Category. Please correct me if I am wrong.

Thanx
 
How can I know I am in which category like EB2 or EB3?
I filed for I140 and I485 in the last month.

Thanks.
 
You can get this information either through your lawyer or otherwise check your labor certificate, it is approved for the stated category.:)
 
I got the receipt notice for I40 from Vermont Service Center but for I485 I got it from Texas Service Center, I guess the reason was I changed my address from Boston to Atlanta.
will it be a problem? because Vermont center is faster than Texas.
any ideas please?

Thanks.
