Specializes in Medical and general practice now LTC.
I would just like to ask what's the difference of Schedule A Nurses and skilled worker/professional in the table presented for I-140 update. (in my receipt notice, the section was skilled worker/professional)
Although they list schedule A it no longer exists for nurses at the moment, no idea when if at all they will bring it back.

guys, just want to inform you that my i140 has just been approved
PD ------ June 8, 2007
Date approved ---- Oct 7, 2007
just want to ask, what's next?
thnak you very much
Much has been written but now you have to wait for NVC and that could be a while, they when visas are available will issue visa fee bill and once paid they will ask for DS230. You are now affected by retrogression and have to join the queue with everyone else
You may want to include when the RFE was issued (if there was) for accuracy because that would be the real processing time since a petition w/ complete documentation will be approved on that date rather than given an RFE.
Hi! Glad I've found this thread. I'm also awaiting for the lifting up of retrogression... anyways, i have also this SRC.... numbers...
PD is March 19, 2007
Approved- Sept. 10, 2007
I asked my lawyer how's it going and she says they will continue on my filing once the retro is lifted up. I'm waiting and hoping for some good news this 2008...
by the way, merry christmas and a happy, joyful new year!!!
God is good all the time, and all the time God is good! God bless everyone:) let's keep our hopes high!

Thanks for reporting this. You just confirmed that Texas has really been taking 6 mos. in 2007.
FYI for everyone else reading: The next step would already be out of Texas SC. An approved I-140 is automatically forwarded to the National Visa Center if under consular processing. Once retrogression is lifted, NVC will send your lawyer the Visa Fee Bill and after paying for it, you will then be sent the DS-230 form (Visa Application form - Biographics).
An applicant should have their own NVC case #. For Manila US Embassy bound cases, the case number starts with MNL-xxx; Mumbai Consulates - BMB-xxx, etc..
An applicant can ask for their own NVC case number by e-mailing NVC and just providing your USCIS case #. All succeeding e-mail inquiries to NVC for their case status should have the NVC case # on the e-mail subject heading or they won't be able to find your file the fastest way.
A prosperous, happy 2008 to everyone!:smiley_aa:smiley_aa:smiley_aa
My PD is July 11, 2007 and hopeful that my I140 will be approved soon.
For those with PD's of June, 2007 onwards, hope to hear your experiences.
Be blessed!
in my case, PD - Jun 25 2007, still waiting as well, I will give it few more weeks due to the holiday season, so, am hopeful something comes up by mid January 2008...
just an update though on my previous post. I-140 approved on Jan. 5, 2008 - I am then officially included in the list of those affected with Retrogression.
