Neo_nepal bro, If it was a simple EB3 case, then you have been impacted. Currently, it shows you have to wait about four years. Don't be disappointed. INS rules change every week. Just week I saw a new rule passed by senate - 90K EB category visa being recaptured, that too, not counting the number of spouses and children of principal applicants - a great relief. Just keep looking at the Visa Bulletin. In the mean time, you can just renew your and wife's EAD every year and continue working. Try not to change employment (specially for your wife). You can visit home with an Advanced Parole if you need to go. Here is the link to see the visa bulletin every month: - http://www.travel.state.gov/visa/frvi/bulletin/bulletin_1360.html Here is the list of processing times in different centers: - https://egov.immigration.gov/cris/jsps/ptimes.jsp;jsessionid=cs6L97El5yCh Here is great information for you: - http://www.murthy.com/news/n_benret.html I recommend two websites of attorneys who live in the west coast and east coast: - http://www.shusterman.com - http://www.murthy.com Of course http://www.uscis.gov itself is a great resources for all your information need.
