As far as EB2-I goes, the dates aren't likely to move forward until July at the earliest (although I think it will more likely be August). If the RFEs are issued and replied to in a timely fashion, there will be nothing to stop approval on the same timescale as without the RFE.
It is a problem if USCIS wait to the last minute to issue RFEs, so it is actually encouraging to hear about them so early.
If USCIS are no longer going to extend the validity of the I-693 on a yearly basis, they really need to up the acceptable validity period to at least 2-3 years by way of a new Memo or regulation. People (especially in EB2-I) can become Current multiple times, just over a year apart (or just over year since the date of the last I-693) before their case is adjudicated. It really would not be fair to expect a new I-693 every year under those circumstances.
As best I can tell, the I-693 RFEs have so far only been received by EB3 applicants who first filed in 2007.
Hi Spec,
It looks like the RFEs are mostly reported by EB3 I with PDs up to Dec end 2003. I am wondering by any chance does this mean that EB3 I might move to Dec 2003 in the coming June Bulletin. Does that mean there is going to be a much larger movement in the 4th quarter? Please let us know your opinion on this.
Best Regards
