According to one website http://www.immigration-law.com the USCIS is working on trying to streamline processing I-140 petitions to four months by April 2009. I quote the following from the website
--------------------------------------------------------
10/08/2008: I-140 Processing in Four Months by April 2009?
* This is a five-month old information which has just been released. This source of information indicates that the USCIS was hiring and training new employees and by April 2009, I-140 petitions might be processed in four months. It is a good news in a way.
--------------------------------------------------------
Going by the previous track record of the USCIS though, I do have reasons to be skeptical about that. We will find out in April eventually, unless our invididual petitions get approved before that. The only issue is that in the interim we still have the threat to jobs in this bad economy. The other concern of mine is that older petitions might get dumped into another Backlog Elimination Center and they only work efficiently on newer I-140 petitions. That solution would be hell for people with older I-140 applications
Same source, but latest bulletin :
10/17/2008: I-140 Delays and USCIS Answers to Discrepancy in Processing Times Between Stand-alone I-140 and Concurrent Filing Cases
"
We will see what and when "significant" decrease in reduction will take place. We still feel that the reinstatement of premium processing services should hold an answer to part of the problems. However, the USCIS answer to this question is as follows: "USCIS expects that adding other classifications to Premium Processing Service at this time would exceed USCIS� capacity to provide timely Premium Process Service. USCIS will continue to evaluate whether it is able to process other groups of cases beyond this limited classification of petitions and will provide notification of any further availability of Premium Processing Service for Form I-140."

He can do whatever he damn well wants to do .. I totally applaud him/her if he is making 300K a year and my advice to him/her is that you should not care wether you have a h1b or not, GC or not etc. Just make sure that you deposit your earnings in swiss banks and whenever USCIS throws you out show them the middle finger and go live in Aruba,. We are all ballless human being if we try to play by the rules of this game of discrimination. My advice is "Go Grab whatever you can"

EB1 is too restrictive! Even a so called NIW (national interest waiver) does not mean EB1 automatically.
Just food for thought. At this time there are 28600 EB1 visas. The EB1 category is current and has been pretty close to it for nearly everyone throughout the last couple of years.
Physicians with their many years of education and relatively very high standing in American society are still not automatically eligible for EB1 visas.
Likewise someone with a PhD who is gainfully employed. Similarly someone who has the kind of skills that are in such desperate shortage that he/she commands incomes sometimes exceeding 250K(as some do have in the SAP field) as per the free market that some in this country believe religiously. When you make this category so restrictive, then who do you expect to fill it up?
This is a sign of the broken system in my view.
Then EB2 and worse yet EB3 become stuffed!

All State is saying is that they are giving EB2-India a total of 2987 visas. They didn't care about spill over and slow consumption by ROW. They are still acting stupid but this time they are trying to show reasoning for their stupidity. If this report had a consumption of visas till date for FY10 like in a dash board, then they would have seen their own stupidity clearly.

Any body can ask for documents. But if you ask as part of a law suit, they will have to give it to you. Otherwise, they can just say some nice words and that will be the end of it.
This is what happened to the China-man. They filed a law suit, so DOS/USCIS gave them the information. But DOS/USCIS now hates the China-man.
IV is being very nice to DOS/USCIS. So DOS/USCIS is also very nice to IV.
If you file a lawsuit you can ask for documents.

My wife collected her's from VFS but they do not give it out the same day either at the consulate or the VFS. The earliest I guess is 3 PM the next day that you can collect it.
do you remember the appointment time?

Hi,
We talked to the DOL people. They said that since my wife didnt start working with them on H1 and never really worked with them we dont have a basis for claiming the 1500 dollars in filing fees. Do you think this is correct? If so what else do you think we can do on this case? Thanks for your reply.

Just curious! I think with the new job one can start EB2 Process and port the existing PD. right?
Yes. I consulted a famous laywer earlier this month on this issue. She mentioned to me that normally USCIS don't have any issues in porting even if your previous I-140 is revoked, but law allows them to not let you port the PD (only in the case if previous employer revokes I-140). Just to clarify though, previous employer's I-140 withdrawal does not effect your existing green card processing as long as I-140 was approved and 180 days have passed since filing of I-485.
I hope this helps.

you have a G28 for every petition
even if you did not, it's not mandatory
they can't reject anything for lack of a G28
it's entirely optional

I will certainly update on this site once I get a final answer from US Consulate, Montreal. So for no NEWS...
My father in law was visiting me and had a heart attack last night. He has been hospitalised at Hilcrest Hospital, Cleveland, Ohio and is scheduled to go back on 4/19/08.
Will a letter from the Hospital will be helpfull or might have a negative impact in my case. They may think this is a fabricated story. Some of my friends are taking care of him but there is no other immidiate family memeber with him accept me and my MIL is also all alone at home.
Any Suggestions/thoughts??

See my answers in red
I can't sleep all night.. cmon atleast give us few options.
My take on the permanent solution:
1. Recapture lost visa numbers
It will need change in law. Cannot be done without senate and congress approval
2. Medical tests are going to be valid indefinitely
Possibily but cannot be a big news, especially if we are talking about near term good news
3. Ppl who've worked for X years automatically can apply for I-485
It will need change in law. Cannot be done without senate and congress approval
5. All can apply as per the old bulletin
Already ruled out
6. ????
Most likely through a Notice of Rule Making all I-485 applications will be accept. Thats my take
cmon guys help me with this.i'm running out of ideas..:D

The fact that you are moving to a new employer using your EAD is in essence using the AC-21 portability provision. This new employer will now have to support your AC-21 claim.
You don't have to do anything further. In case employer A revokes your I-140, then USCIS might send an NOID. This can be easily reversed by sending in your AC-21 documents via the new employer.
There is no such thing as "continuing your GC process with your old employer" in your case. It is only true if you are working for your new employer using H1-B or other type of a visa, NOT EAD.
If anyone has doubts about what I said then please correct me.

Anybody?
I think if you have H1b sponsor and lucky to get in H1b quota then I don�t see any problem. Your GC is for your future employer. Check with ur legal consultant.

From my lawyer:
We are being told that they are holding all of them for now. We are unsure
where this will land because of congressional pressure and lawsuits that
will be filed. We are still waiting to get more answers about what
immigration plans to do.
