new : # I-485 applications received that month
pending : # I-485 pending approval at end of that month
approvals : #pending( previous month ) + #new( this month ) - #pending( this month )

I can't vouch for the numbers as I am prone to typos. Please double check them yourselves.

The good news is that with heroic effort the INS can dole out ~120K approvals in a single month (nov01). And the bad news is that they can have a negative approvals total (sep02). I am just guessing that this is due to a problem discovered by audit, etc.

It will be interesting to see the numbers for the coming few months.
 
I seriously hope we get a heroic effort this january. incidentally, one of my CSC friends got an RFE end dec. I'd be happier to see an approval, but what the hell.
 
silly man,

i could not find any attachment for my case WAC02-034 in your 02-046 thread. Could you tell me what is the name of attachment and in which page it is attached to. I got the RFE on november, so i am expecting that my case is not untouched. am i wrong here??

Details are :

RD : 07-NOV-02
FP : 24-APR-02
RFE:24-NOV-02
RFE RECVD : 05-DEC-02

AVM still showing : on 5th dec we received your RFE........
 
skumar, attachment name is macr1.zip.
You got an RFE means your case is atleast *touched*.
 
silly man,
i download the attachment and it seems that it is for series WAC02-046 but not for WAC02-034. Could u clarify it?
 
What u mean by type over 46. i pressed ALT+F11 and VB script opened. I try to look for 46 but could not find within program. could u clarify in detail like step by step process..
 
Silly Man and tallbonobo, good job. It gives us hopes. It seems we can get our apporovals within three months as the average procession speed. (no negative!!!)
