NSC is processing according to PD

Looking at the forum it appears that NSC is processing according to PD. Some 2001 PDs but 2004 RD are getting approved.
 
I hope they are processing based on PD and not RD.
It would be most logical.

But you can't figure out a pattern in USCIS processing.:(

When processing the batch of files that are within their processing time based on RD, they should process by PD. Shouldn't they?
So Jun 2007 is not within their processing time.

But I think they do it other way around by picking based on RD from a batch of current PD files

It is not feasible to process(only) based on PD. If a person's PD is 2001 and if he/she is filing in June 2007, how it is possible? USCIS has processing dates https://egov.immigration.gov/cris/jsps/Processtimes.jsp?SeviceCenter=NSC
 
PD only matters to determine if current or not

From reading other threads on this forum, I understand that PD is important only to determine if you are current so that your application can be approved.
All the applications that are current are organized in I-485 RD order, so that the application with PD of 1/2202 and RD of 1/2003 will be processed before application with the same PD but RD is 01/2007.
I think that this makes sence.

You are correct, PD it only a ON/OFF flag, the position in queue is determined by RD of 485.
Before PD retrogressed in 04, AOS were approved based on RD.
 
Do you mean that ppl who bought 2000/2001 pd for 30k/40k and filed rd in 2007 will not be processed immediately ?

All these emergency substitute filings of 2000/2001 pd's that are taking place before july 16 th, will they have to wait for their rd queue?

Then what is the roi for these guys?

:rolleyes:
 
Think about the whole idea of Visa Bulletin: it limits EB applications by PD. It is done so that applicants from countries with the less immigrant inflow can get in front of others (others - in front of folks with earlier PD).

If USCIS is to process cases by PD it would defeat the purpose of Visa Bulletin.

Thanks to Visa Bulletin some part of visas are allocated to folks NOT from Mexico and India. Long live processing by RD. ;-)

They won't.
They will have to.
Return on investment? They can file 485 and use benefits of EAD and AP.
 
BTW, if someone paid $30K for labor that person is probably mentally challenged anyways. Let it go. :)
 
I don't blame them

I don't blame those people who spend 30K for labor or using
other short cuts.

LC delay in some states: 5-6 years
USCIS delay: Un Predictable
DOS(visa bullettin) : God even doesn't know how it moves.
Consulting Companies : First they consume your blood then flesh and then your bones.

Law makers occasionally bypass mexicans or others in front of people in line and make them wait more.

With all the above can we blame somebody who takes a short cut?

( By the way I did not buy a labor in black market. I'm also waiting patiently like you guys. But patience is running out...)


I was shocked to hear that DOS waster 10K visas last year because of their bullshit cut off dates.

When the system is not fair to you, can you be fair to the system??

Yes, with my limited knowledge, I think people wants to use 2000/01 PD sublabour and filing now will have to wait till the processing date becomes current and still they have to wait for the name check.
 
???

I think FBI will do the name check process as per the queue. One of my friend got his GC within 8 months thro' 2000 sub labor last year. How come his name check and FP cleared immediately? I filed my 485 almost 4 years back and in the local INS office I was told my name check is pending. I couldn't believe this.

Your logic make sense and i really hope they do follow the same logic.
 
Seen couple of cases approved to support my argument

Still think they are doing it by PD queue. But now that they have move the processing dates Aug 2003 (EB3) they could follow RD.

Knowing that they have taken the dates back to Aug 2003 (EB3) at least is comforting (to me) to some extent that they don't have any 485s pending before Aug 2003. My PD is Mar 2003 and RD is Dec 2003

How do you made this guess that there is no 485 pending before aug 2003? This is not true my friend. There are many waiting before you like me. My PD is EB3/jun/2002 and RD is JAN/2003. I think biggest adavntage of moving this PD by one year is this big attorney. As they will be busy now with many new EAD/AP/485 file for those waiting for this date.
 
bhavesh, i think the people before aug 2003 are in minority, probably you had got stuck in the name check when NSC was approving 485 applications before jan 2005 when retrigression hit.

What's with the Aug 2003 date ???
NSC is processing Aug 2006 EB-485 cases now (RD)
And EB3 PD is going to become either June 2003 or June 2005 in a couple of days.

What is this Aug 2003 date that you are talking about ???
 
Both PD and RD are important in 485 processing at different stages.

RD is followed during the initial processing of 485 that includes requests for name check, FP notice, EAD etc and when finished they sit in 'qualified for approval' queue.

PD is still important as the final visa number is allocated in the order of PDs for those applications whose processing (name check, biometrics, etc) is complete and qualified for final approval. However, though processed in the order of PDs, it might not matter much to those qualified apps who made the cut (i.e., dates in bulletin).

I would expect some retrogression when the 'huge' flood of new applications from june/july time frame start to get lined up in final approval queue may be from end of this year or begining of next year. So, at this point, folks with earlier PDs would definitely feel the benefit as one would expect.
