We received good news in late August. We filed an EB-3 PERM case in 2010, which was certified 20 days later . . . over the holidays! We filed the I-140 Petition in 2011 and it was approved 4.5 months later with no RFE. After waiting for the priority date to be current, we filed I-485s for the primary beneficiary/applicant, his wife and son using 245(i) in April of this year and all I-485s were approved without RFEs and without an interview. The Petitioner and the beneficiary are in different states too.

The beneficiary and his family are now moving to California to start their new lives as Lawful Permanent Residents. The petitioner and the beneficiaries are extremely happy with the smoothness of the process and so are we.
