Processing based on RD or PD? (EB2)

[GCwhenandwhy]

Hi All,

I have started a new thread on how uscis processes I-485. Is it based on Receipr date(RD) or priority date(PD). Of late, i have not seen any EB2 approvals. With the SEP visa bulletin showing visa availability for EB2, can we expect some EB2 approvals?.

Also, based on the EB3 approval trend, it seems name check takes around 2.5 years to complete. is it fair assumption?. or may be since visa dates were not available all 2006, namecheck would have been completed much earlier and just waiting for PD to become current.

Let us track EB2 cases waiting for approvals


My Case details
LC :- EB2 PD 02/2002
I-140:- RD 06/2006, AD 07/2006
I-485:- RD 07/2006 ( No LUD changes :- even after my first FP)
FP :- 10/2006

Lottery! I hope they have a vague algorithm which gives more weight to RD than PD (PD is just for eligibility!).
