I didn't take CP in to account for the Q1 number but doesn't 15% seem high considering overall they are about 10% (if that). Regardless, 32K in Q2 and possibly a similar number in Q3 is a nice number to work with for a continuous stream of approvals.Quote:

Kolugc - congratulations! I hope more and more 2007/08 cases get approval so that opens door for 2009 and onwards.
Congrats to all who got 485 approved.
I received my EAD receipts on 2/28, with received date of 2/21. I couldn't find the case status in USCIS - check my case status. It is saying the info not available. Is this common? Shall I need to contact the service center? I didn't received the Finger Print appointment yet.
My RD is 2/18 and I am still not able to check the status. don't worry they normally update it after your FP is done. I completed my FP on 3/8 and I am able to check status of AP for my kid only. Nothing for me and my wife yet - not EAD/AP case status.

Hello,
Thanks members for the setting up and managing this wonderful forum.
This place is almost like a glass ball where at least I make out the trends and make some useful conclusions.
As pointed out before this is a clean forum with some good sense of humor.
This is my only contribution to this forum:
PD: 04/16/2008
485 application filed: January 2, 2012.
EAD Card: 2/16
CPO Card Production Ordered mail: 3/16/2012.
Thanks much
Spotted this on Ron Gotcher's forum http://www.immigration-information.c...9574#post69574

AILA just posted this ("AILA InfoNet Doc. No. 12031639 (posted Mar. 16, 2012)")
Quote:
On March 16, 2012, at the AILA Midwest Regional Conference in Chicago, Charlie Oppenheim, Chief, Visa Control and Reporting at DOS, informed participants that he will likely retrogress India and China-mainland born Employment-Based Second Preference priority dates to around August 2007, effective with either the May or June 2012 Visa Bulletin. He also advised that he projects that all EB-1 visas available in FY2012 will be used this year, resulting in no "spilldown" to EB-2.
Congratulations .. Enjoy !!Quote:

This is bad ......i meant if the dates retrogress back to 2007....
anyway below is what Ron explanation was
"We knew that there would be a retrogression at some point. The unknown variable was the USCIS. For months, their production has lagged far behind what was needed to exhaust the annual quota. It appears that the Visa Office strategy of advancing cutoff dates in order to qualify more applicants at overseas consular posts has been successful. Also, it looks as though the USCIS has finally started to begin approving China/India EB2 cases at a much faster pace. This means that between the increased productivity by the USCIS and the significantly larger number of people applying at consular posts abroad, the annual quota will be exhausted and no visas will be wasted this year.
As for the severity of the retrogression, keep in mind that for every one additional case applying overseas, nine adjustment applications were filed. While the overseas cases will be resolved within a couple of months, those AOS cases will remain in inventory for years. This is a much smaller version of what happened in the summer of 2007. We will start seeing forward movement again in October. "
Hoping if it starts moving again from october, atleast by last quater of 2012 this backlog cases be approved...

They are going to talk about overseas visa rejections, employer-employee relationship etc
PD: 24 Mar 08
MD: 10 Jan 12
ND: 18 Jan 12
FP: 8 Mar 12
NSC
I have called USCIS twice (last Friday and today) and on both occasions when I spoke to the someone, the gave me the standard BS about the processing time is 4 months etc etc and no particulars about either my Background/name check and nothing on the status of my case....
any ideas about how to break through their defence?
Cheers
Naitik
Teddy was not for sure, based on his trackitt calculations and EB1-C usage, he had pointed out this earlier, I believe. Seems like whatever party we had so far was at the mercy of EB2-ROW.Quote:

Great!Quote:

I know that once the fees for NVC notices are submitted, they will be valid indefinitely and will not expire but in general, people who have received NVC notices have become current within 6 months to 1 year and I really don't know why NVC notices will be sent out if dates are not expected to cover those PDs within few months of sending notices. The question is will the dates advance to Mid 2011 soon after the beginning of FY 2013 or is it going to move at a very slow pace (moving every few months each VB) and we may reach Mid 2011 by the end of FY2013 or it may go to FY2014.
Can someone throw some light on this?
His recent projection of SOFAD for this year was of 35K. Let me find out that post to see if there is any break down mentioned.Quote:

2) They have already approved some 485s for 2008 PDs.
3) Why has he said he would retrogress in May or June. Why not just with certainity next month? Perhaps he wants to move dates significantly forward and then do a final retrogression back to 07?
Any insights from the maha gurus would be great.
