A lot of you are waiting for the next system update. We apologize for the delay.
We expect to release the next system update to WhereismyGC.com on Sunday.
Thank you for your patience.
System forecast updated based on latest 485 and PERM data. ( https://www.whereismygc.com/login.php )
The gist is that PERM data confirms 33-36%reduction in PERM approvals. We expect this will act favorably for EB2IC.
485 data doesn't have any Aha! Generally speaking 485 data in the middle of a year is not very useful.
We also analyzed third set of data (USCIS dashboard) which also confirmed that indeed the slowdown is across PERM, 140 and 485 processing. So 2014 wouldn't be as bad year as we earlier thought it was going to be.
p.s. - In 1-2 weeks from now we are going to tweak our simulation algorithm as part of our continuous improvement in our algorithms. Until then good luck!
We made two important updates today:
1. EB5 China data was re-estimated and updated. (It was about 2K downward adjustment).
2. Forecast Algorithm updated to more accurately allocate within category spillover.
Please see a new video of WhereismyGC's guide.

23rd March - It's WhereismyGC Birthday today. Our heartfelt thanks to our customers for making this venture a success.
The tool will be FREE for two days. The promocode is HAPPYBDAY
Pardon my limited knowledge I have a very basic question about the whole timeline -
When whereismygc projects that for Jan ’11 PD the estimated GC date as Aug ’16, is that date is when we get the card in hand or it is the date when PD becomes current. If it the prior one then on average how many months before the PD is expected current? I just wanted to know when one needs to be ready with I-485 filing. Also what are the timelines for other milestones like FP etc?
----------------------
Moved this post to whereismygc's thread. - Q
Hello Cancer24 - Please check the dashboard where there is a row called - "Most GC applicants will be able to file 485 on or before.".
This row tell you when an average case should be able to file 485.
The row by name "Date by which GC may be obtained" tells you the date when applicant can expect to receive GC.
Hope this helps. Let us know if you have further questions.

Through DLS, immigrants can access affordable, reliable and quality lawyer services. We will take guesswork out and make these services available at a fixed price. Moreover we will back most of these services with our money back guarantee. The money back guarantee will be our way of helping immigrants who unfortunately may have to face tough USCIS decisions.
We are in the process of building following services:

There is additional explanation by CO (as per Oh's law firm). As per that explanation CO apparently has predicted that he will move dates to Spring by Sep 2014.
In the interest of Qs Blog users we would like to disclose that Whereismygc.com tool has been predicting Mar 2009 for EB2-India as an average case scenario.
It means two things:
1. Unless your case has some issues or unless you are a new porter (i.e. less than 4-5 months since filing EB2), you are likely to be greened if your date is Mar 31st 2009 or prior in EB2-I category.
2. The actual date movement could be slightly beyond Mar 2009 to ensure visas are not wasted. (It is quite possible that CO might already have thought of it while predicting Spring! We will know soon.
Good luck.
Hi Q : Will you be updating the whereismyGC forecast based on this news?Quote:
