They do a re-order of all the application that becomes "documentary OK" in the previous fiscal year.
USCIS process 485 as they become documentary OK ... this list is drawn up in the begining of the year..
say for year 2005 they would have drawn up list in Sep 2004 .. now all those guys who got past from the backlog centers have become availiable .. but they do not touch there 485 until the end of the year -- when they re-order the list.
Now there was huge clearence in 2005 .. so in Sep 2005 they all got first in the list ... so the cut-off date moved so backwards.
So I guess it will take quite sometime for the cut-off date to reach June 02.
May be couple of months if number of guys form backlog centers are not many ... or couple of years if they are many.

Mr. Green said:Wow according to this, you are better off being an EB3 applicant if you are from India! The rest of the world is back to current in all categories!
I don't think I read in any of the early predictions that EB3 will move ahead of EB2
