Glad you found them useful. Everybody's situation is different and so we let users use our forecast to make a decision for themselves. Our generic advice on downgrade/upgrade is that while you do it - DO NOT - lose your current category. Try to file separate rather than replace your existing application.Quote:

This includes all the emails we send out too.
Most of these updates are free. But to read some of them you do need a paid subscription.
The EB3 prediction for may 2011 date seems way off..
Thank you. It is not off. That is what the prediction is as of today. We have made 2/3 comments on this topic. Please see updates at https://www.whereismygc.com/update.phpQuote:

The transition is almost complete. Existing users may use the website. New users will have to wait one more day before we make plans operational.
Dear All
We are excited to announce launch of our new and affordable monthly and annual subscription plans. Go to https://www.whereismygc.com/stripe_pricing.php to purchase.
Existing users can choose to move to the new plans and get refund on the old ones. Just purchase new ones and emails us for a refund.
Our new plans start at 7.95/month. There are no contracts and obligations. The current month becomes fully payable on 1st day. You can cancel anytime.
Also for new customers we are introducing a no obligation completely FREE TRIAL of 7 days. You can cancel anytime for any reason or no reason at all.
Please spread the word and let your friends see what 2021 has in store for their own GC application.
As we move through this transition, if you have any problems or questions please do not hesitate to reach out with any questions or problems. As always we wish you the very best with your Green Card application.
Since we are receiving repeat questions about whether somebody should downgrade to EB3, we just want to say that so far we have made four posts on this topic at https://www.whereismygc.com/update.php. Please use that information and make your own determination. We can NOT advise individually and will not do so.
We updated the forecast. We reassessed demand for EB3 ROW as well as EB3-I and made adjustments.
Today we have rolled out a feature in iForecast where you can run simulation for another date, country, category from within iForecast.
Thus you do not have to go back to your profile to change the date.
As always if there are questions or problems reach out to us via email or this thread.
We again updated the model. For details please see the website. In the interest of sending out less emails we only are posting it here and on our own website under "Updates".
Tip of the day
We are seeing a lot of folks continue to go to their "Profile Settings" to change date and see forecast. You no longer need to do that. Just use iForecast. You can change dates there without having to change your own profile date.
One question about the prediction. What does the date “Est. GC approval on or before” indicates. Is it for the getting the GC approved all the way something else. In my case it is really quick - like 8 months to get GC after filing 485.
Yes. That's what it is. You should also look at the optimistic and pessimistic scenario to understand your cone of probability.Quote:
