How will I know if my employer already filed me an immigrant visa?

I'm a nurse residing in Philippines with all the needed requirements (except visa) to work in the United States. I recently got my NY license. I have 2 agencies. I am in doubt of the 1st agency because they told me couple of months ago that they already filed me in US embassy, but I still haven't got any proof (notice of receipt). I followed up my request couple of times, but they always fail to give me a copy of the certain document. My 2nd agency already interviewed me and said that they will be processing my immigrant visa, but i'm quite puzzeled about it.. I don't know if it will cause conflict. So i like to know if there is an available option to check my status (if there is) in US embassy. Thanks for your reply!

Hi,I also signed up contract with an agency and now is waiting for my visa.So my suggestion is based on my personal experience:

(1)Uusually u can get a notice from CIS about in 2-3 months when the agency started the application.I got mine in 2 months.

(2)If the 1st agency already lodged the application for you,then i don;t think it's a good idea to have the other one apply for u again.At least the immigration office will get confused,which could lead to delay of your case.

If i were u,i would have a good talk with the 1st agency to see what's exactly going on there,as the applicant,we have the right to know everything concerning ourselves even though we have agencies working for us.And if they didn;t do anything substantial(which is quite rare,coz they also want u to go to states ASAP,that's the time they start making profit from u),u can cancle the contract and then talk to the second one.

Just personal opinion,might not be all right.

Good luck.
