How much time for Indian born NZ Citizen for getting his labor approved

Hi Kumar,

I am an Indian born New Zealand citizen working in US. I am going to apply for my Green Card. I am working as an IT consultant. I also wanted to find out how much time I have to wait to get my labor approval If I start the process today? Do you have any idea? Please guide me? Do they consider applicant by Citizen or by country of birth?

The country of birth determines the Visa availability, the Nationality has no impact.

Could anyone verify this? I mean Does citizenship count for GC ? Or Place of Country?

Thanks lot!

Country of birth determines your wait time not your nationality. My husband is a naturalized UK citizen but Indian born. We still come under the visa availability for India and UK.

What do you mean " Will they see my nationality or birth of origin?"
Of course they will and it would not matter at all! The processing time is on case-by-case basis according to USA laws, not Nationality or Place of birth! Good luck! And I have a question for you: Is you being a Newzealand citizen changes your place of birth ( India)? I believe: NO! So just apply for your USA Green Card and don't worry! Good luck.
