    Siskind thinks pure EB3 India will use up most of the numbers (i.e. those who filed in EB3 and stayed in that queue)
    Why is pure EB3 people getting more . Is this not in the order of PD. I mean whether its downgraded to EB3 or EB3 from the beginning, they should follow the PD . Am i missing something?

    I guess because for ‘pure’ EB3 the I-140 is approved in Oct 2020 ; all downgrades are assumed to be applied now in regular processing .
    In practice downgraded EB3 already approved would be the same as ‘pure’ EB3

    Sorry, not sure what he meant by that. So may need to do some digging into that.

    Probably gonna be out for a couple of days to protect the house and land from the hurricane. Definitely going to lose a few trees ;-).

    No body is getting less or more. Its about whose file is in order. They pick up files based on PD, if it has all docs 485J, valid medical etc then that person's file get approved. If its missing anything then RFE is sent. This gives an appearance that GC is being approved without any order.

    Disappointing.. to say the least. At least no harm done.

    No communication yet from USCIS on Nov bulletin. Hopefully they will continue to honor the filing dates

    Looks like they did talk to S.Miller @ COVID ward. DF movements did not progress, following the past trend.

    These movements are based on hitting the 5.2K quota for EB2I / EB3I. They agree with earlier predictions. CO is very conservative and looks like he does not want to move beyond the 5.2K numbers. A little disappointing that "rapid forward movement" is less than 1 month for EB2I.

    With this rate of movement, people with PDs before Mar 2010 of EB2I may save atleast 6 months if they have readily available EB3I I-140. Once EB2I to EB3I porters or clean EB3I approvals hit the 5.2K, EB3I FA movements will stop or retrogress (before the Hail-Mary SO is applied in the last quarter).

    Additional thoughts:

    • I want to see if CO will change his mindset and start proactively moving dates if there is a Nov upset and JB wins.
    • Anyone who has a chance of downgrading and getting their EAD/AP's should seriously do it without any second thoughts.
    • Even if some non-India consulates open in Jan 2021, that will start cutting into EB3I forward movements. Don't know how much of flood will materialize when Indian consulates open. For EB2I, the CP numbers should be balanced by people using EB3I I-140s. So EB2I should not retrogress at all.

    Looks like USCIs is also accepting the filling dates.. breather for few folks whose law firms still didnot send applications

    I really thought but hoped not that this would be the case.
    They will keep the visa numbers available to EB3-ROW as long as they can and hope that consular processing picks up. The horizontal spillover if any will be applied at the end of the year.

    Th filing dates Being open to use are a relief definitely but does that mean they have not received 5.2K EB3-I applications yet ?

    We now got the definition for rapid forward movement. 21 days for Eb2 I and 44 days for Eb3 I.

    Ace, you did not like down-porting based on my past recollection. Have you already started making your move to EB3?

    And or people who are switching jobs also get a fair shot of applying AOS.

    EB2 FAD will move by 2 months at the most (01NOV09) .
    EB3 FAD will move to 30APR2010 at least.
    EB2 FD will remain same
    EB3 FD will remain same
    Nov will still use filing date.

    Not even close.. But guess I was the closest predictor...where is my prize ....lol

    I guess - its inventory building until Q1.

    Feels like attorneys messed it up.
    IF they would have filed the applications last week THEN DOS would have known about the "real demand" AND would have moved the date much aggresively.
    But probably Now DOS is moving extremely conservatively.

    My attorney and several other attorneys have waited till last day to start working on applications.

    Again, speculating here... nothing seems true in these times.

    I never upgraded to Eb2 when I was eligible to do so in 2016 after doing my research. I was telling my Colleague who had upgraded to Eb2 that time not to do that, but the obsession of Eb2 just blinded him and many others till 2018..

    Now when I see these people running back to downgrade to Eb3 I really feel pity for them. I can understand people downgrading to get EAD, but some greedy people who can file 485 in Eb2 before May 2011 trying to clog Eb3 claiming child age out and other stories.

    Someone switched job a year back, and PERM is going to be approved in November 2020 I meant this group of people are going to get a fair shot. Hope it makes sense.
