Will A Petition Become Current Faster If A Petitioner Consults An Immigration Lawyer?

Our visa sched will become current after 10 years (normally) because we live in the Philippines. But our mom consulted an immigration lawyer who fixes Family-based petition for Filipino families and the lawyer said it will only take 5-7 years if all the documents are correctly processed. How true is this?

The lawyer will only help in that all the documents are processed correctly the first time. However the waiting periods themselves cannot be shortened by a lawyer. So no. A lawyer cannot shorten the time it takes to become current.
How true is what he said? About 0%. Petitions are given priority dates based upon the date that the fee is accepted, also known as the receipt date.
If your receipt date is June 1, 1999, it is going to remain June 1, 1999, forever, or at least until the visa is issued.
Immigration attorneys, especially foreign ones, cannot alter the pace at which the orderly process of issuing immigrant visas moves.
You don’t have to believe me. Do a search on visa bulletin. You’ll see how it works.
No. The available immigrant visa is set by Department of State.
You can check the cut off date of Priority Date by this website. http://travel.state.gov/visa/frvi/bullet…
i doubt it, an attorney cannot bend,change the time of immigration rules imposed for certain countries.
