Yup,
it takes at least a year for Perm and I140(non-premium) to be approved.

Do we know how many EB3row PERM could be in FY12, FY13 and FY14. wasnt it like 10-15k yearly ?
So how much eb3row fall across to EB3I will we see this year FY15?
Thanks
my previous calculations until Jan14 PD was around 21000 of total demand for EB3ROW on 2014, of course not all will be approved at the same time, so the number of approved applications should be much less than that.
I'm still convinced the number of FA this year will be modest but definitely should help.
next year will be another story where i expect a huge spillover (+10000) which will essentially bring EB3India huge relief.
the problem when this happen will be the people porting from EB2I to EB3I.
will be quite interesting!

this is arrived at off of Spec's perm data @ http://www.qesehmk.org/forums/showth...d-Calculations
and EB2Row approvals off of
http://travel.state.gov/content/visa...l-reports.html
so the guess is 13 to 20k EB3Row demand we may see , so are we safe to expect a 7k to 14k fall across this FY15 in EB3 to EB3I ?
well, numbers speak for itself
Spec or Guru's,
from your Perm data here @ http://www.qesehmk.org/forums/showth...d-Calculations
can one explain why there is a big difference in numbers for "CY of PD" and "FY of PD" for 2014 for ROW?

I would imagine it is because the CY2014 is not fully updated, while FY2014 is (more) fully updated. Note that FY2014 end at the end of Sept 2014 while CY2014 obviously goes for 3 more months - so a FY will get updated in full earlier than a corresponding CY will.

krishn,
The FY figure is not the "FY of PD". It is the FY in which the case was certified. The CY figure is the approximate PD of the case (calculated from the A number of the PERM).
I've changed your row descriptions in the quote of your post to more accurately reflect what the figures represent.The tables represent the FY (October to September) that PERM applications with Priority Date in a Calendar Year were Certified.
The FY number is really only a measure of DOL's productivity for the FY.
In a FY where processing time become longer, then the numbers certified for the FY will be relatively low and the number of cases in the in the CY within the FY will also be low). Conversely, in a FY where processing times decrease, the number of PERMs certified will be higher. How many cases in the CY within the FY that are certified will depend on what the latest PD that DOL were processing in that FY.
So we saw 10.5k ROW certifications in FY2013 and 20.2k certifications in FY2014. In both cases, that total is made up certifications for several CY. In FY2014, the bulk of certifications had CY2013 PD (70%).
The total certifications for a CY (or PD if you prefer) will generally be seen over several FY of certifications. Depending on processing times, they may not be seen in the same CY/FY as the PD. Additionally, there will be an initial rush of regular cases, while a decreasing tail of audited and appealed cases may appear over the next 2 years or so. For CY2014 PD cases, relatively few of the eventual total had been certified by the end of FY2014. Already in FY2015, another 4,805 CY2014 cases have been certified to date. The latest date certified is around August 2014, but many from earlier in 2014 are still being certified (as well as CY2013 cases).
Taking CY2012 ROW cases certified to the end of FY2014 (based on A number) (19,894), 47% were certified in FY2012, a further 42% in FY2013 and the remainder in FY2014 (in fact, a few certifications for CY2012 are still being seen in FY2015).
An even more extreme example would be for CY2009 cases, where there were essentially no (5) certifications in FY2009.
Simplistically, the total FY certifications measures DOL productivity for that FY and CY of cases (PD) certified over several FY is a measure of the total number of cases for that PD year.
I hope that helps.

Thank you so very much. I understand it now. thanks

EB3 row Inventory = 8,000
EB2 row Inventory = 17,994
Yes EB3I is in 2003 :-(
and for past several years EB3 visas are unused/wasted by USCIS. Very very savagely Sad !!
EB3 I inventory decreased by 1950 , from oct14 to jan15
Hi all,
I have a question for all the great gurus here.
Looks like EB3 Row inventory is only 8000 and it is technically current. Will there be a big spillover for EB3 I this year? Can poor EB3 I souls can have some relief?
I really appreciate your inputs.
Best Regards
Amul
last year for FY2014 Uscis/DOS moved dates for eb3i for 5 weeks.
from oct2013 to oct2014 visa bulletin - EB3I COD was moved from - 22sep2003 to 08Nov2003
and unused/wasted thousand of EB3 category visas as a whole.
if there is no spillover the eb3I dates should move into mar04, if there is any spillover looks like 5k avg, it should move to somewhere around sept04.
isnt it time for USCIS to issue medical RFE's for EB3I jan2k4 guys ?
As it takes some time to get the medicals done , when will they issue these ?
even though the the CO moves EB3I dates for a week or two in next bulletin , Jan Eb3I I-485s may not be approvable so the visas may get wasted for the quarter , isnt it?
Spec, Gurus ,
your thoughts on eb3I progress from now to september and how much will be the spillover from eb3row to eb3I this year?
thanks

EB3 ROW , M , P is technically current for months now.
EB3 I moves by one week , no medical rfe's for 2k4 eb3I 485's yet , so whats the use of moving dates by days or weeks if the visa eligible 485's are not approvable?
EB3C retrogress by 9 months. now this is shocker.
Maybe CO is waiting to do EB3 Fall across towards the last quarter of the year to be on safe side. Maybe he want to make sure no eligible EB3 row candidates misses their chance by doing FA too early.
Also EB3 ROW/P/M may be current for all "practical' purposes, but not current in paper. Once he moves dates a few months forward for EB3-ROW, they will be current on paper too.
Not really.
CO warned about the possibility previously.
The increased demand in EB3-C has been caused by reverse porting of EB2-C cases to EB3-C. The last Inventory gives some clue to that.
On the Chinese forums, they are all crying about how to relink back to EB2 again.

gcq,
I think CO is being far too conservative with EB3-I movement.
I don't believe there is any doubt that there will be FA to India within EB3, although the exact amount may be unknown at this time. I think he could move the dates faster and still not compromise there being sufficient visa availability for EB3-WW for the rest of the FY.
The EB3-WW numbers may possibly see a surge at some point, if applicants don't insist on EB2 PERM requirements because the EB3-WW COD is so advanced. Given the time lag of the PERM/I-140/I-485 process, I'm not convinced that will be a factor for this FY.
Without an irritant, there can be no pearl.
EB3 I movement is extremely disappointing. I am wondering why CO is not moving it knowing that there will be an SO this year. I am worried that in the last quarter they might swing it too far and might end up wasting the numbers or not following FIFO
I have been doing some Trackitt analysis on EB3 ROW approvals & this what I see;
Duration ---------------------EB3 ROW APPROVALS
Oct 2012 - Feb 2013 -----------------> 101
Oct 2013 - Feb 2014 -----------------> 176
Oct 2014 - Feb 2015 -----------------> 70
So, in the same time period, only 40% approvals of EB3 ROW in FY2015 vs FY2014 & only 70% vs FY2013. In FY2013, there was good amount of SO to EB3I. This may indicate more SO in Q4 for EB3I. Any thoughts?

with the current Perm trend I think that EB3 ROW category will be safe for couple of years and will pull up EB3I with it.
I think CO should be safe until June bulletin to start moving EB3I at a more rapid pace, USCIS can issue RFE for medicals if needed and then approve straight forward cases.
the amount of FA is still to be determined, I see this calculation here as very relevant.
The approval for EB3ROW should start to pick up again in a month or two but will still be below limit, we also expected that if CO didn't move EB3ROW dates immediately beginning of the FY15 there will be this gap where there is virtually no demand for EB3ROW and latest Jan I485 pending inventory proved it.
SR for Medical RFE ?
looks like times and meaning of RFE have changed. earlier rfe was thought of something as not so good to get on I-485. Now EB3I folks who are/would be current and did not receive medical RFE are raising service request with uscis customer service and talking to L2 officer to get one to send in their medicals. looks like everything changes with time.
