Hi harris, You seemed like a man with a lot of info. I have a question for you. Previously I was going to file LC with EB3 but seeing the retrogession back to 2001, I instead opt to file in EB2 now. My advertisements were all completed except the filing was left when this stupid thing happen. Now I am starting it over again with advetisements and hopefully by the end of feb I can apply for LC. Even though all the advertisements reqt. can be completed within a month and within 2 months I can apply LC, my lawyer ruled out this because of strong possiblity of denial. So the earliest I can apply LC is feb end and wait 60 days for its approval and then only file I140 and I485 concurrently and get EAD and all those stuffs. So at this time it seems like I will be filing I140 and I485 in april end of 2006. My question to you is as there is big rumour that even for EB1 and EB2 for rest of the world countries may be retossed back like EB3 in the future, do you know or just guess whens that going to happen??any idea.....thanks in advance...
