Every month DOS Visa bulletin comes out 15 to 20 days early. Visa bulletin for July 2001 came out on 14th June. It says so on the bulletin itself.
What I and I suppose many did not know is that we are supposed to send our 485 application in July NOT June. My attorneys also did not know that. They mailed my application on 27th June and it reached INS on 28th June. Thats the RD(Receipt Date) for my application. The important part is that my Priority Date(PD) was not current on June 28th(The Visa bulletin said it WILL become current on July 1).
So what can happen is that when an officer looks at my application and he sees 28th June as my receipt date, he CAN reject it saying that it was filed when my PD was NOT current.
If there is anyone with similar situation and has 485 approved please post
