All.,
I was talking to my attorny last week, In our conversations, when i told him that despite the dates were moved to June 2003, I dont see many approvals.
Attorny from NY., told me that majority of the pending 485 pending cases will be approved in the last week of July. As he told me USCIS is planning to approve in bulk and quickly retro the dates once all the visa numbers were consumed. When i asked you told you that... He said some one from inside i know off.
Also, as i was reading the http://www.immigration-law.com/. breaking news...with heading 06/17/2007: Background of EB-2 and EB-3 Numbers Current it says....
********************************
Unconfirmed sources indicate that the State Department allocated the EB visa numbers for the FY 2007 "conservatively" with the expectation that the USCIS and USDOL would remove backlogs in a fairly rapid pace. Accordingly, at the end of May 2007, reportedly they allocated only 50% of the total annual quota for the EB numbers. Now, since it is not anticipated that the USCIS will produce enmasse I-485 approvals taking out a large number of the EB visa numbers, the State Department was afraid that unless the FY 2007 quota would be used before the end of September 2007, some of the visa numbers would be wasted. From such judgment, the State Department had to open the EB visa numbers current in July so that no EB visa numbers for the FY 2007 would be wasted. Anyway, it turned out to be a good gift for large number of EB immigrants. We thank the State Department for making a timely and right decision. ********************************
It mentioned again unconfirmed sourcess...then it says "reportedly they allocated only 50% of the total annual quota for the EB numbers.[/"
That means out of 140000 annual visa numbers. Only 50% is used until now. then around 70,000 unused visa numbers can be used by pending/new applications.
This seems promissing.... Being previously EB3 of India is retrogated to Jan 2001. That is allmost 7 years as we are in 2007. If the retrogation is in place, then USCIS can only approve 2802 per year. ( 28.6 % per catagory of ( 7% per country of 140000) people of EB3 category. Being it is 7 years retrogration, USCIS might have around (7*2802 = 19614 pending 484 applications of EB3 Category of India.)
With this prediction, they have enough numbers to approve most of the EB3 category.
Any opinion
