Only if the immigration attorneys lobby and work as hard for EB applicants in preventing visa wastage like they are doing for DV applicants...
Happy to share the good news. Got status change of 485 approval. Wish every one to get greened, all the best!
After my interview case was approved next day. From that day 1 it took approximately 3 weeks to get my card in hand. This is for folks with interview, whose files are moving around and active. If you are one of the guys who did not require interview and your file is at main office like NBC and not been touched for years, I've no idea about the timeline. Hopefully not much delay. However they are having significant delays with printing cards after your case is approved.
What was the interview like? Was it in person or a voice/video call? Does the officer inspect your certificates/exp letters etc., or is it just a formality ?
Greg siskind and other AILA have filed a lawsuit for FB immigrants also ( DV is won and ordered to start processing visa but cannot enter till December31 per proclamation). If the court orders FB immigrants to start processing visa( hearing is tomorrow), is it possible from October 1st ( if consulate open)- what lateral spillover we r expecting will not be given
I assumed this also the uscis will not have so much time to consume the FB numbers so possibility of spillover is still there. But not sure how CP will affect from October
I am not saying we will not get spillover
Read my post
My concern is the lateral spillover which is given quarterly and other is 7% rule for visas given to each country- that includes EB and FB
So if the lawsuit is won- FB starts and CP EB starts which leaves AOS in limbo and CO not moving dates aggressively
Does anyone know what "Document was mailed to you" status means for I-485? We responded to RFE last month and the last status was RFE response received. I was hoping for Approved message and this is confusing.
An ideas?
Mostly approval notice. Usually should say Case Approved. I believe its the same. Congratulations.
Guys,
Hope you all are well , safe and healthy away from this covid thing.
I am one of those ‘old timers’ equally excited and eagerly waiting for the spillover in hopes to be greened soon. I was doing some leisure reading and this caught my eye. All along I was under the impression that I485 interview is waived ONLY for those candidates who applied for AOS/I485 before March6th, 2017 when the EO was released. But from the link below it says that anyone with I140 approved earlier than March6th, 2017 is exempt from an Interview. Is that a fair statement and true?
If this is indeed correct then I ‘Hope’ most of us here waiting in a limbo will be greened soon.

CO might wait end of this month to see whether congress does something for FB spillover - This might make him cautious and cause little movement. If congress does nothing before September then he might move dates in November bulletin. Any thoughts???
I wish that was true. Digged a little more and found the update that was published in Dec 2017. I believe everyone was interpreting the rules in their own way those days.

As I mentioned earlier, all those are speculations so doesn't count in the equation as they are many variables. However hope he will be cautious to move dates only to the extent to avoid another 2012 fiasco.
We should not be disappointed if the movement is not each one of us personally expect as the fiscal year is just going to start now and there are 11 more bulletins to go.
IMO, it is good for the bulletin to come as late as possible. If it comes early, the folks at CIS/UsTechWorkers may have enough time to get it reversed. In my view, ideal movement would be 4-6 months every bulletin from now to December. Hopefully, when it comes out, we don't make too much noise as that will attract the antis.
keeping fingers crossed. Staying put in current job
Hi Q, this is an unrelated question. What's the deal with the "Check in with Charlie Oppenheim" ? Is that a monthly jig where he meets with members of the immigration lawyer community(AILA)? Who organizes this meeting? Can the public join in to listen or participate?
