July-August 2001 was the time most of applications were filed ( eb3,eb2 were current) I will not be suprised if takes 3 months just for the july applications to get approved. I am wrong completely ???
 
No Title

EB2 went from Nov \'00 to current in May \'01.
But as the cutoff was only 6 months, I do not think there would\'ve been a flurry of I-485 filers in EB2 in May.
It takes at least 6 mos for LC/I-140 to get cleared anyway.

EB3 went from Jan \'99 to current in July \'01.
Definitely there would\'ve been a bunch of applicants with PD > 1/99 who had I-140s cleared in mid and late 1999, all of 2000 and early 2001 (possibly 2 years worth of cases) streaming to file I-485s in July \'01. I think that when NSC hits these cases, we might see an increase in processing times (if there is one)...
 
this will slow down EB2 as well

cases are processed by receive date, not EB. so if there are 2 years worth cases, it will definitely slow down everybody.
Just wondering, if this adds another 6 months to everybody filed 485 after July/1, why INS made all those case current at first place? And why were they still posting 300-330 day processing time????
 
No Title

yes ,I think the same.WHich one get counted ?? RD or ND?? Because most of the people who filed in June got RD as July?? Why is that??
 
Usually RD counts.

Any speculation on how NSC works has left everybody with big surprises. So count on your blessings!!
 
LIN#

Yes, it doesn\'t matter anymore if it\'s EB2 or EB3. I was told NSC just goes serially by LIN# and/or ND. They appear to continue processing the subsequent LIN# irrespective of previous backlogs.
 
I meant

I meant that there may not be slowdown in processing May \'01 RD\'s even though EB2 became current that month and not that EB2 will not be affected. I think everyone with RD after July \'01 will get affected
 
It looks like there will be more chances of slow down .... too many odds right now , INS itself in
