Green Card time for blanket L1A visa (EB1 category)

[s9223]

Hello,

I recently came to US on a L1A blanket visa (managerial category). I am planning to apply for my Green Card through EB1 category. I wanted to know the following -

1. Time taken to get the Green Card from the day I start processing. I am getting conflicting information on this..some people say its faster and others say it is just like any other category

2. Are there any folks who started the GC process in teh past few months and can they share their experience or what state they are in?

3. Are there any pitfalls that I should watch out for as I go through the GC process.

Thanks in advance,

Sam
