Hi Bobby Sing,
Processing always default on RD. But applicant PD is not current then they will be move to next applicant. See below the example:
Hi CAPD02,
I am confused by your statement "But applicant PD is not current then they will be move to next applicant".
I thought everyone filed their I485 has a current PD, otherwise how could they file I485? So, there should not have anyone with PD un-current among the I485 applicants. Do I missing something?
Hi PBLC_01302006,
See the posting above from SopCap. That was my situation. Also there are lot of folks in my situation.
I filed my I-485 application in Apr 2006 (EB2 India Cutoff date for that month was July 2002).
Starting from Aug 2006, EB2 India under UnAvailable Category. (My PD was not current, even my I-485 is in their queue)
Starting from Oct 2006, EB2 India cutoff date is June 15, 2002. (My PD is June 18, 2002. My case is not current now)
What I mean, if today TSC processing dates reached to till my RD, they won't approve my case. They will move to next to the case which beyond my RD. If that application is current they will approve that case.
I hope this will clear your confusion.
FYI:
If you see the I-485 cases in NSC/VSC, you can find lot of cases with RD 2004/2005 pending due to their PD is not current (Example: EB3 applicants filed labor in Nebraska/Michigan in 2004 and they got the labor clearance in six months from Chicago DOL. i.e Their PD is 2004. At that time all the categories are current, so they filed I-485. But since 2005, with retrogression, they strucked and still they are waiting to get their PD is current. You know, EB3 cutoff date is now 2001). They have to wait.....
CSC/TSC doesn't have that situtaion. Because the labors from CA/TX took 4 years to clear (Prior to PERM system). Where as NSC/VSC cleared the labors in six months-one year time frame. So all those 2004/2005 applicants already filed I-485 two years ago.
Thanks
