I completely agree with your last 2 lines. But I don't agree with the even dividing of the number into 5 categories of I,P,C,M,ROW.
Let's take an example. Suppose for some odd coincidence....the first 8000 odd EB3 apps that USCIS processes starting Oct 1.....none are from I,P,C,M. Suppose First 2500 are from Uk, next 2500 from France, next 2500 Germany and the next 508 from Pakistan. Now the number for ROW at this point would be 8008. Now they get another app from UK next. Will they refuse to process that app as the ROW figure had reached? Then they will still process more than 2500 for I,P,C,M. Won't that be unfair to UK applicants.
As I have said a couple of times now, and so have a few others - ROW cannot be capped at X/5. Due to the high demand from I,P,C,M....it likely gets a MINIMUM of (100 - (7 X 4)) X EB3 cap.
That was a ateempt to establish a "fair assumtion" so It may be wrong. But simultaneously you also should not assume FIFO within EB-ROW as you tried to explain as we really do not know whether USCIS follows FIFO.. Bottomline USCIS, by law, can not exceed 9% limit for any ROW based countries (Britain, pakistan,...) as well.

Does one need to be physically present in US in order to file I-485 application? I had already booked my travel to India on May 25th before I came to know that the my Priority Dates had become current. Will I need to be in US till I get the filing receipt? I was curious on how would UCSIS know that I'm out of country on the day of filing?
Thanks
How will USCIS will know? They have all your immigration related documents including I-94. They can track all of your movements.

I am upto 14 letters signed, sealed and mailed to the President. I am waiting on a few more to come....It took probably an hour over the past week. Guess what...in the process I educated over 20 Americans about our issues. Guys this can have a cascading effect if we talk to people we know and get these letters. We all need to step up and actively talk to all Americans we know and get these letters. They are our support bank when its time for larger fixes and we need Americans to call their Congressman & Senators to help us.
Talk to EVERYONE you know and get a letter signed. It would be great if everyone mentioned the number of letters they have got when they put out posts on this thread. Lets not just talk the talk but WALK the TALK!!!:D
Over the past couple of days I have had 10 of my friends/colleagues who have signed the letter and they have been mailed out to the president. I also have copies of them to mail out to IV once I have all that I can get..
I plan to call my Senators & Congressman's office's today too. I believe we need to get through to our friends and colleagues and talk about the issues in this letter. I have yet to come across one person who does not agree that our situation needs the attention of the administration.
I know I can get a few more of these letters signed by the end of this week.
Anyone out there who has more letters going out??:D
Lets have some healthy competition!

A few months back, when there was no visibility when priority dates will become current, my wife had converted from H4 to F1 so that she could work. She is currently working on CPT, and also has applied for OPT, which will start in August.
Now with my priority date June 2002 becoming current, we must decide what to do. My lawyer had told me earlier that filing 485 while on F1 is not advisable.
Has anyone been in similar situation? What is the best way to take advantage of priority dates, so that my wife does not have to be away from job for a long time.
Any suggestions will be appreciated.

Height, weight is noted.
For adults (man or woman) only Tetanus and MMR is needed. Children, take your child's school vaccination record; by elementary school end, this record should be complete and they will not no vaccination needed. Go to your doctor /HMO and get these done. For MMR they will say, oh, you don't need, we will do antibody assay (to squeeze more money from Insurance). Show your left hand and ask them to poke. Tetatus is IM and MMR is SC (sub cutaneous). Then and there take a vaccination report.
Go to doctor. First visit - they will draw sample (for HIV test) and then give Mantoux Test; this is Intra Dermal injedtion. usa your right hand - (for BCG or TB). No skin reaction, don't worry.
Skin reaction over 5mm with raised skin (induration or something). I had a postive skin reaction. Then doctor will take complete physical , take an x-ray. In 99% of case TB will be ruled out ( you see the positive skin reaction is saying that your were exposed to TB bacteria in the past - not necessarily disease). The chest X-Ray is the dignostic proof, that no TB was there at all or is not thee now. This X-Ray and Physical is on the 3rd day after 48 hours. The X-ray is not included in the sealed cover, only conclusions of X-ray and Physical.
For those 1%, don't worry. Even if you are diganosed your I-485 will not be rejected. You have to take an undertaking and prescriptions and medicines. You will be treated in 3 to 6 months. Then they may complete your case. This para is my educated, logical and common sense guess.
For a good doctor, in Denver / Aurora area of CO, PM me. Good and nice American Doctor and staff.
All you said is correct, except for you don't need Hepatitis B if you are over 16. No, there are no more tests involved, unless your tb is positive. If you tb is positive you need to do chestX-ray. I know that because I was just doing the tests for myself. Varicella must be taken twice 30 days apart. Same applies to MMR.
I hope this helps. If you go to a good doctor, he will give you a complete list of things that you need to do before coming on the medical exam.

some tips from Susan Henner:
Although the principal employment-based categories are current for
July,
future retrogression is indeed possible later this fiscal year,
particularly
if demand for immigrant visas increases substantially. Visa numbers
can
retrogress in the middle of a month and become unavailable without any
prior
notice. If there is a mid-month retrogression, USCIS could elect to
stop
accepting adjustment applications. While this is unlikely to occur in
July
2007, it becomes more and more possible as the fiscal year progresses.
It seems that cases not completed before any future retrogression will
be
held in abeyance until priority dates again become current. Having an
adjustment on file, even if the case is in abeyance, allows for
eligibility
of work authorization and advance parole, and may be particularly
critical
in circumstances where there are children who may reach the age of 21
during
the process.
An applicant for adjustment of status MUST be in the United States in
order
to be eligible to file. Overseas spouses of adjustment applicants
should
be encouraged to enter or reenter the United States as soon as possible
in
order to be included in the principal's adjustment application.
H-1B and L-1 nonimmigrants may maintain H or L status while their
adjustment
of status applications remain pending.
Whenever possible an adjustment application should be filed
concurrently
with an I-140. This is permitted as long as the visa priority date is
current. Even if priority dates retrogress after filing, the I-485
will be
placed in abeyance and remain pending, although it cannot be approved
until
the priority date is current again. Yet extensions of work
authorization
and advance parole may be obtained during this period.
It may be advisable to file I-140s by premium processing if available
for
the employment-based immigrant category. This may hasten the issuance
of an
approval and may also increase the possibility that an adjustment
application could be approved and an immigrant visa number captured
prior to
the end of the current fiscal year or before any future visa
retrogression.

I am posting this from Ron Gotcher's forum-
"Cite as "AILA InfoNet Doc. No. 11040563 (posted Apr. 5, 2011)"
Following-up on his earlier observations on EB-1 demand and "spill-down" to EB-2 reported on InfoNet on March 29, 2011 (InfoNet Doc. No. 11032960), Charlie Oppenheim discussed scenarios for EB-2 movement in the coming months. In preparation of the May 2011 Visa Bulletin, DOS will consider the approximately 12,000 unused EB-1 numbers that will "spill-down" to EB-2, EB-2 demand and possible unused numbers, and will consult with USCIS on its processing potential. A quick look by DOS at this point indicates that there is the possibility for greater advancement of the India EB-2 category than had earlier been thought. Doing so will give DOS better visibility into EB-3 upgrade demand in the pipeline, and will better ensure that all visas allowed annually are used. However, a rapid advance could spur a surge in demand that could impact the cut-off dates later in the year. The May Visa Bulletin, generally issued mid-April, will contain a discussion of visa availability projections for the remainder of the year.

DOS has to be utterly dumb, insane and ludacris....
what makes you think they cant blame USCIS statistics for this? USCIS gave us wrong stats, we made it current, then they said that no, they have enough visa numbers.
If its written into law that DOS can only issue VB once per month, and cannot update it during the month, they cannot do a damn thing.
its not written into law that they cant update it mid-month. They are allowed by law to update it whenever they want.
