Well this is my theory -- so might not be correct 100%.
With Ur PD -- Sep-2002 and with the A# ... I feel you will be one of the guys -- who consumed this years EB-3 visa number ...
Did they send U a notice for Biometrics this August ?
If -- YES then there is strong chance of Ur 485 was Adjucated and waiting for visa number ...
So a good chance to hear some good news ... come October.

Well my arguments at this stage has no buyers ... My attorney totally disagreed with me ... somehow is not able to digest the notion of .. visa number comsumed by ... 485 applications which were adjucated and waiting for visa number...
