Any one received RFE for 2009 yet? If yes, up till mid 2009?
EB2I with PD 31MAR09 or earlier are getting RFE now. Many such people had reported RFE in trackitt.
Thanks Idliman;
About 10-15 people reported till March 31st 2009. Last quarter, low demand, low perms, lot of anticipation.
EB2-I, PD - 03/25/2009
This is probably what you are looking for:

Be careful in making a categorical statement that these are lost to EB3-India alone.
Most EB3 Countries were retrogressed as well over this period. USCIS failings in processing cases in a timely fashion, or DOS moving the dates sufficiently, apply equally to them as well. Ultimately though, EB3-ROW would likely have become Current sooner and EB3-I would have benefited for a longer period.
This table shows, among other things, how EB3-I has benefited over the period, even though it might have been more if EB3 had been managed properly.

Without an irritant, there can be no pearl.
Will there be any spill over from EB4 and EB5 categories? interview process might have effected these categories too.
Just to jog everyone's memory, ImmigrationGirl (Emily Neumann) and her partner Rahul Reddy are partly responsible for the GC backlog mess that we see today. Search for ITserve video and you will see. These lawyers including Murthy are not the friends of immigrants. Appreciate everyone stop posting links to their websites! Also, please take what they say with a huge pile of sodium chloride.
Iatiam
I agree with you whole heatedly. It's the Rahul Reddy, Murthy aunty and some US based counter parts are heavily responsible for current back-log.
I don't give any incentive nothing new that they are saying just posting videos and marketing etc
Sorry, I am not very active in this forum.
Can somebody please explain what they did to increase the back-log?
Thanks
Also, if you read through her blog (which Indian's love BTW), she makes two astounding predictions,
1. EB3 India will not be current next month
2. EB2 India will move to 2009
Obviously it doesn't take very high IQ to make these two predictions. Emily isn't too happy that she might lose some business when dates move ahead.

I have received RFE for medicals and I485 supJ and my PD is September 2009
Thanks Spec, Spot on. You read my mind. Yes, the loss was for EB3 as a whole. I was expecting EB3-ROW to be current by FY 15 end, however it became current only for the last quarter of FY 17.
Nice, did you receive this RFE recently or is it a while?
I know there is discussion regarding how much spillover EB1 will use before it carries over to EB2. The spillover flow per DOS (CO) is:
EB1 --> EB2 --> EB3
EB2 --> EB3
EB3 --> EB1 --> EB2
EB4 --> EB1 --> EB2 --> EB3
EB5 --> EB1 --> EB2 --> EB3
I believe that to move EB2 dates, they have to make EB1 current to apply the spillover. All the EB applicants (EB1 through EB3) need an interview if their I-485 was filed on 06MAR17 or later. I am not sure of interview requirements for EB4 and EB5 as they don't have to file I-140. Are they doing interviews when the dates are not current for EB1's? How many EB1 applications are pre adjudicated and ready to go?
A strict interpretation of the rule, would be if they cannot use the EB3 numbers by September last(FY end) the numbers move over to the FB category for the next FY. However I believe CO has the autonomy to move the dates within the category as he deems fit in the final quarter. Logically the numbers would have to go to EB2 I for the most effective utilization of the numbers, but who knows.
And from this year onwards we started getting the mandatory interview requests as well. This meant the new filers from March 2017 are not going to be displayed in demand data anymore starting April 2018. July bulletin prediction is definitely going to be a roulette (earlier predictions can be equated to blackjack with card counting) with very limited reliable data.
what is your category EB2? EB3?
I received about 45 days ago and I am in EB-2. Not sure if this means any movement though.
Can you confirm if you are EB2-I?
Yes EB-2I September 2009 PD.
I am skeptical that it means anything. They sent a bunch of RFEs in 2016 for 2009 PD. It meant nothing then. All it ended up doing was wasting our time and money in doing medicals and other paperwork. I am glad NSC is not sending RFEs in advance this time (based on Trackitt). I rather have the RFE sent after the date is announced current than wasting more money on medicals
Dear Friends, Kindly please share your best guess,
as when EB3 India Sep 2009 priority might come current. I am in
India now, my employer is trying to file my H1B, but looks like
getting H1B approval is becoming very difficult these days.
Could be in the next few months. Just hang in there. You could get your GC in 1 yr from now.
