Certified to move on! Here are my milestones to date. Labor app applied in 03.2004 in EB2/RIR; received NOF on 06.29.2007; rebutted NOF on 07.23.2007; app certified on 08.03 & received hard copy on 08.09. This was like a journey to the center of the Earth with its 3 layers: [1] Core...

Of beasts of burden You may have bailed out of the bailgadi lane for now into the ghodagadi lane, but this ghodagadi may have such a long wait time at the pitstop (the eternal wait for date to get current) that the very bailgadi that you did gadaari with, may pass you in the future. Lage...

Good catch gcco. There are a few self-styled 'gurus' here - 'gurus' by virtue of their spending a better part of their day on this forum. This is a good place to exchange info, but take all that is dished out with a pinch of salt - we all need to do our due diligence and not act on random...

Retro v PBEC It is unfair that a '05 PD can file for 140/485 before an '01 PD. Since the pace of PBEC/DBEC cannot be controlled externally, the most logical way of injecting fairness into this God-forsaken system is to stop all 485 processing till ALL BEC backlog is cleared. This way people...

02.15.2006 to 08.15.2007 = 18 months to adjudicate all backlog cases. 08.16.2007 to 09.30.2007 = about 45 days to reply to & for final decision on the last set of RFEs/NOFs

I am reading the posts on this thread after a few months, and wanted to thank JustWatching for creating and maintaining the tracker for many months. Yes, you built it and they came. Also it is a good thing that the baton has been passed to the able hands of MVinays & MDWatch. Guys, we need to...

Only about Prem... You shouldn't be saying all this just before Valentine's Day. Jab pyaar kiya to darna kyaa? For what its worth I received the 45 DL (popularly known as the Prem Patra) from PBEC about 10 days back. PD: 03.2004 (PA) RD: 11.2004 45 DL: 02.2006 -Tikal

If the PD is Feb/2006, it is obviously a lie.

Xipe Totec: More than the "not enuf people working" effect, I feel it is more the effect of "people not working enuf". In any case, the intent of my email is on the wonderment that there is another soul besides me in this PBEC hell-hole who thought of a pseudonym from Mesoamerica. -Tikal

Every morning is a new beginning - so many new words to learn, not enough hours in a day! Thanks for teaching us 'follwoing' pearls of wisdom: 'follwoing', 'forigen' - who to care about forigen?, 'campaigne', 'laucnhing', 'arfe' ready to pay extra? I hope you keep these coming, as it wakes...

Churma Bhopali I think ChurmaBhopali would make an excellent writer of letters to PBEC, Chao et al. Churma, why don't you give everyone here some ideas that are 'non-discorging', 'self praised efforts', to tell off those 'Bakasur' 'Beurocates' at Philly BEC? The queue might just start...

Maybe it is not such a bad thing. Let DBEC cycle thru' its load, and then let the f*faces at PBEC transfer our cases over there for a 2nd pass. In this case, let retrogression dates stay where they are, so that true FIFO is established for 140/485. But any talk about BECs - PBEC in particular...

For ChurmaBhopali Tune to Bhopal ka naam hi barbaad kar diya. I would suggest you to first learn English before you shoot your mouth here. What is 'discorging', 'uncessary', 'self praised efforts', 'becasue', 'Beurocates'....?? You ought to consider taking English-as-4th-language. If...

Tho' this sounds like a doomsday scenario, 18 mos to 05.2003 actually could be the best case scenario - in which case the ETA to 05.2003 and beyond becomes a superdoomsday scenario! The foll is my 2 cents on this f*'ed up situation [1] The lawyer by giving a far-out date is telling you in...

[1] I think PBEC could be 'Philadelphia Backlog Excreta Center' [2] When it is "Andher nagri, chaupat raja", gross stupidity and incompetence are assets, and you can't try such people :) Just look at Brownie who is testifying today to Congress about the Katrina fiasco. He got fired a couple...

tot-batot: Thanks for the info. It is discouraging to read it. [1] I think *we* are done [2] Assuming that about 120k 45-day ltrs are still waiting to be sent out from PBEC, the rate of 300 ltrs/day translates to this charade to go on till 04.2007, yes then they need to enter the response...

PD distribution raj_vagc_oct02 (that's a mouthful of a moniker :)) Thanks for the data. This answers the foll mails http://www.immigrationportal.com/showpost.php?p=1244384&postcount=5836 http://www.immigrationportal.com/showpost.php?p=1244717&postcount=5859...

I always thought that Indians & Chinese in the US were not a healthy population - way too much fatty food (delicious tho') combined with a lack of exercise...

Just pray this boat can weather all storms and doesn't sink before it reaches the promised land :) I understand your focus on the median guy - prob is the approval distribution wrt time is heavily right-skewed. I would look at the mean time for approval, which would be much higher than the...

eb2kid: I am an EB2/Europe applicant, and was running thru' the same kinds of numbers in addition to PD distribution of LCs by month. I guess there is no way to find out the PD distribution of LCs by month, by country at the 2 BECs to estimate the future effects on the ROW (rest of world)...
