Yes, civilengineer - for good or bad - that article is a joke.

Hello Guys,
I wanted to ask a quick question: do you know at what stage a visa number is assigned to your I485? Is it at last stage, just before they are done with all background check, other verifications & ready to approve ?
Once an application is documentarily qualified in all aspects, which includes successful completion of background checks, a visa is requested. if visas are available for the case, a visa number gets assigned and GC is issued. if visa numbers are not available the case at the time of request the case will remain in demand until visas are available.
Thanks Matt. So after finger printing is done, do we know how much time does it takes for background check and other things? I have used two names in my I485 application (other names used) so do you think my application will be delayed because of this?
Appreciate your opinion on this.
Hi Gurus,Q

Spec,
I am reading data from trackitt that is different from what u fetched. I am sure that it would be an error on my side. But I will just represent the data anyways. Please correct me as to where I am going wrong.
The number of applicants who applied for I-485 in Aug 2013 so far is 75. Also many entries are by repeated usernames and therefore the actual count would be more like 68. I will represent data for last 4 months as that is more interesting.

Jagan,
I wouldn't worry about it too much.
I have extracted the figures from a database I keep based on the Trackitt data.
As you have observed, the original Trackitt data is quite messy.
All new entries are checked against existing entries so there shouldn't be any duplicates.
What can happen is that people subsequently remove their case. If that happens, it will still be in my database but not in the actual Trackitt tracker. It happens more than you would think.
I've been keeping it since October 2011 and it it just too difficult to cross check against the latest information in the Tracker when I can only grab 50 records at a time. I have over 4k records in the database now and it forms the basis for these posts.
I use Country of Chargeablity = India. If you are using Nationality = India you will almost certainly get lower figures. That's a possibility.
My latest figures for PD 2007

Either way, it should still give the trend.
Without an irritant, there can be no pearl.
My case status changed to Initial review as well on August 17, 2013. PD is July 22, 2008.
Dependent case status has not changed.
What does this mean. It may mean nothing, it is possible that they are just looking at cases close to current priority date. If all visas are used quickly, dates retrogresss this may mean nothing or it may be a good news.
Any comments by experts over here.
Gurus.. quick Q:
A friend of mine has a EB3 PD in 2005. He has ported to EB2 and I140 is approved. However his 485 (that he filed for EB3 in 2007 fiasco) is still in review status since 2010. Now he is current.
What are his options to find out what is going on with this 485 application.
Thanks in advance for your advise!
