Gurus,
For someone with Sept 13 2007 PD, how long do you expect it to take to get my EAD and then GC. I ask becasue of the statements like these.
"The November Employment-based Second preference cut-off date for applicants from China and India is the most favorable since August 2007. This advancement is expected to generate significant levels of demand based on new filings for adjustment of status at U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services offices. While significant future cut-off date movements are anticipated, they may not be made on a monthly basis. Readers should not expect such movements to be the norm throughout the fiscal year, and an eventual retrogression of the cut-off at some point during the year is a distinct possibility."
If at all they retrogress after some forward movement, what kind of retrogressed dates can we expect? I am guesssing not less than July 2007 as we are already seeing cases from July 2007 being cleared??
Sorry if its a dumb question.
Dear Friends ,
I'm at work and I'm almost tearful with joy for the movement and see you all become current. I'm dec 4 07 about a month away myself and hopefully will be current soon.
Wishing all of you a very happy green life ahead .
Just a note : Dont forget the people that have helped you all in your life in this journey. Family, kids , spouse anyone ....
Very well said. I am 11/8/2007 , hence not current, but yes, can see light at the end of the tunnel.
I was in a bit of a state of daze myself once I saw the Nov 1st 2007.
Basically, for you and me, it is any VB now, it's a very strange state to be in. I and gcseeker were earlier talking about restless nights this week, now the week has been extended to n number of months.
This is great. Congrats to all those who became current. I still have time (5th Aug 2008).
So how long are they will keep it moving is still a million dollar question i guess. One thing is clear. Instead of opening flood gates like in 2007, I think they are following new method by moving 2-3 months each bulletin until their estimated numbers match for this year.
Life is such a roller coaster .. such a roller coaster !!!!
Just this morning, on this very thread, I was ranting about fate and how tipsy-turvy it has been for me in the last couple of weeks. And then I read the Nov bulletin ... I was current !!! (PD 10/10/2007) ... I din't know how to react .... I was happy .. very very happy, but yet still uncertain of what lies ahead ... h1b transfer in progress .. can I apply for 485, will by company apply for my 485, will I get an RFE, how much is it going to cost me .. and the list is endless. I guess I'll get my answers soon ... and hopefully they will be good !!! But for everyone who is going through a rough patch, just remember that the end is just around the corner.
Congrats to everyone who got current ... prayers for everyone waiting ... and tonnes of thanks to everyone on this forum !!!!
OMG !!! just saw.. A big congrats to all my buddies here who got current...Yipeeeeeee..!!
10/10/2007, belmontboy, indiaeb2, rd singh, bleakhope and everyone else who I'm forgetting...
Teddy.. man, I'm really happy for you
and Soggadu, what can I say....I'm partying this weekend to celebrate you getting electrified
Gcseeker, Nishant and everyone else who missed it by a few days,buddies..hang in there.I think next month also, we should see some movement![]()
Congratulations to everybody that got current. Teddy/Sogaddu congratulations!!!!!
So truly said Nishant. I am one month away (Dec) and honestly I was a little disappointed, but on the positive side we are atleast close by. If we look at it four years back from now this is much much better.
What can we infer from the below. They said there would be siginificant demand, they also mentioned they anticipate significant cut-off date movement, in addition they say it wouldn't be monthly and eventually retrogress.
This advancement is expected to generate significant levels of demand based on new filings for adjustment of status at U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services offices.

(thanks to Monica for the link and wishes...she's the best)
Oh my God!! I am current (Sep 2007) !!!
I dont believe this. I was expecting the VB to be out on Fri, not today. Was not ready for this pleasant shock. To think we were discussing about vaccinations just a couple of weeks back.
I was busy today so didnt browse the forum much. I was going page by page until i reached page 13 and voila!!
Soggadu, my jersey desi bhai - are u current?
Congrats to all who are current!!
I no longer provide calculations/predictions ever since whereismyGC.com was created.
I do run this site only as an administrator. Our goal is to improve clarity of GC process to help people plan their lives better.

Congrats to all who became current (Teddy, Soggadu etc) and I really feel sorry for those who are not yet current (Nishant etc).
This is one of the most happiest and memorable news after a long gap and I can't tell how relaxed I am. I wish and hope that I forget the crappy politics at my work place for next 7 months.
This is real Dassera for me and hope every one the same.
Last but not the least ...thanks to Q, Spec, Teddy, Soggadu, Nishant, skpanda, globfan and many others for continued contribution relentlessly, some are done and some are still expecting, who are feeding us with data and letting us dream of some hope.
I can go to India after a long gap of 6 years.
Hello Gurus(Fab 5),
I would really appreciate if you could give your updated predictions (for this year and the years to come) based on today's Visa bulletin and inventory data.
Thanks for all the hard work and great guidance.
