Why haven't you filed I485 yet? Your filing date was current for a long time..

[shesad]

I am in Canada and I did not get letter from NVC to pay the fees and other stuff, miscommunication and my fault.. It was current up to July, do you think it will become current again by October? Appreciate reply.

As per the recent Bulletin commentary and chekin with CO posts in this thread recently - it should be current in Oct 2019 bulletin. Good Luck!

Whatever sense you can make of this:
"Every effort will be made to return these final action dates to (at least) the dates which had originally been announced for August. " Aug EB3 FAD was 01Jan2006

I don't think it's August EB3-I dates itself. When Aug-2019 bulletin was released, he announced in Oct-2020 he will try to bring EB3-I dates back to July 1,2009. He reiterated the same in Sep-2019 bulletin.

Spec and other gurus,

When will we know for sure about the spillover numbers from FB? I appreciate all the good data you all publish here.

[shesad]

Thanks, so in October VB it will go back to July 2019 VB dates.

Spec and other gurus,

When DOS publish the September 2019 CP figures towards the end of October 2019 we should have a reasonable idea because CP has represented about 94% of all FB approvals in recent years.

Full confirmation will only come when DOS publish the FY2019 Immigration Statistics. That may be as early as January 2020.

That's quick, when you consider USCIS still hasn't even published their Yearbook of Immigration Statistics for FY2018 which ended nearly 12 months ago!!

thank you Spec. I hope there is some good news in terms of FB spillover when it gets released.

I mentioned 3 different sources in the post.

To which one are you referring?

Your link is to a DOS Visa Statistics report. I probably should have referred to it as such, rather than DOS Immigration Statistics.

If you mean the USCIS (DHS) Yearbook of Immigration Statistics report, it would be mentioned here.

I got RFE for Supplement J missing in June 19 and replied back in Aug 19.After that I have received email alert that USCIS have received RFE reply in Aug 3rd Week but 7 days later another RFE issue which is exactly same like before that Supplement J missing.
I don't know what to do here ? Should I reply again this RFE or open SR ?

[desibhai]

PD Eb2 Apr 2019. I have received RFE in Jul 2019 that Supplement J not provided. So we sent reply in Aug 2019. We received notification that response to RFE received. After 7 days we received exactly same RFE(Supplement J missing) again with new dates.
Please advice if anyone seen like this before. Should I reply again to this RFE ? or Is there anyway to approach USCIS on this matter about duplicate RFE ?

Hi folks, I am a new member to this forum. The wealth of information over here is just amazing. I was going through all the 215 preceding pages in the hopes of finding an answer to my question which is "Approximately when will make priority date become current? An year/2 years/3 years? My priority data is 2/24/11 (EB2 India)".

Its possible that several of you may have already answered similar questions in the past...I guess my eyes started glazing over after the first hundred-odd pages of content. If any of you can help me navigate to a page within this site which answers questions like the one I asked or can weigh with your thoughts on when there would be light at the end of this (never ending) tunnel, I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks in advance

That's a difficult one to answer, once you receive an RFE, USCIS will expect a reply. You really need a lawyer for this one. But raise a SR and see if you can get some help on this one.
Good luck.

[imdeng]

The simplest approach would be to just respond again - you already have all the documentation. Its just a question of another postage and some labor and corresponding attorney fees. What is the pov of your attorney here?

Don't think anybody has a good handle on a 2011 date right now. The worst case scenario - which also happens to be status-quo - can be something horrible like ~10+ years if EB2I only gets its regular quota every year. Your options of 1/2/3 years made me chuckle (sad chuckle!) - we might not even get out of 2009 in 3 years!

If we get a recession in 2020 like it seems like we might and it lasts for some time then the timeline will accelerate somewhat.
