EB2 ROW trackitt pending cases
There are 173 cases pending in trackitt for EB2 ROW in the I-485 tracker that have been filed after Sept 30, 2010. Only 107 cases have been approved. I would say chances of any spillover are remote in this case. :mad:
FY2010 DHS Yearbook Statistics
I noticed the DHS Yearbook of Immigration Statistics has been published.
Some interesting statistics that we couldn't get from the DOS report.
EB1
EB1A --- 25.17%
EB1B --- 23.31%
EB1C --- 51.52%
Total - 100.00%
The EB1C % of the total is reduced from FY2009, when it was 59.10%.
The Dependant / Primary ratio for EB1 was 1.40. i.e. each I-140 approval results in 2.40 I-485 approvals.
EB2
The Dependant / Primary ratio for EB2 was 1.06.
EB3
The Dependant / Primary ratio for EB2 was 1.37.
The overall Dependant / Primary ratio for EB1 - EB3 was 1.25.

Yes, we are pretty much on track here.
Whilst it is true that different Countries almost certainly have different ratios within a Preference Category, I don't think we should second guess the number without some solid justification. I don't think we have reached that point.
IMO, the Differences between the Preference Categories are what we might expect.
For EB1, the time taken to gain the necessary reputation and expertise, or work their way up the organization, means the applicants are likely to be older and more likely to be married and have children.
In EB2, with Masters as the minimum requirement, it is likely that there are more younger people with less time out of University.
Yes, you can notice that from the table below!
In EB3, where everybody is retrogressed and have to wait a considerable time, the likelihood is that applicants are older when the application is approved.
Spec,
I quickly compiled the table below from DHS FY statistics.
