Re: Employment immigration
The processing time for the Form I-140, Employment-Based Immigrant Petition and the Form I-485, Application to Adjust Status to Permanent Residence will depend on where the forms where filed (i.e. California, Nebaraska, Vermont, or Texas Service Center). The processing time also varies from time to time depending on INS backlog and Service Center priorities. You can review the latest INS processing report on my website at: www.bccvisalaw.com
