hypothetically speaking.............

if the bill is indeed passed and and some recaptured Visa numbers are available.
BUT .what would happens in a situation like mine who has Priority date of 2001 and was waiting for the name check to be cleared when we entered "retrogression". If my name is not cleared will the Visa number now available pass onto the next approvable candidate and the date move to following year and then once the Visa numbers are not available anymore those stuck in name check Now Cleared are sitting not approved.
Any thoughts.....................

If 1932 as is passes and signed into law, all of us would be fine. The number of EB visas issued would increase to 300-400k yearly at once since the spouse and family members will not count. Wehn you look at "good years" in the recent past when priority dates were current they were approving about 250-260k a year. So all in all every one of us will benefit from this law, including you.

You misunderstood me. My question was not personal. I took my example just to put my point.
The real issue is Name checks........ what good is the increase in the Visa number if the FBI is clearing name checks.
I have been ( and I am sure many others) stuck in this name check for years.
I was interviewed last year in October and till date I have not heard from the office.
So my point was instead of just concentrating on Visa numbers there should be joint effort to get name checks cleared.

Your concern is a totally different issue.

You should contact your area representatives to speed up name check. Folks here can't even file I-485 due to the retrogression.
