Trump vs Biden
I don’t know if the current backlog wa created by Trump era. If so, I did hear Trump cut legal immigration in half and maybe this backlog USCIS is dealing is because of him.
But anyway if that idea makes sense, Biden seems to be more favor for legal immigration. But it doesn’t seem that this election is easy for Biden.
I don’t know if Trump or Biden is better
If you are wondering why during Trump era, the EB3 unskilled category processing time is faster than now. Please read the link below in the comment section.
Trump cares more about the US economic and why during Trump era EB3 low skilled processing is quicker than now is because Trump saw that there was a shortage in low skilled level jobs in the US than in high-skilled level jobs. And by filling that shortage in low-skill jobs could benefit the US economic more the skilled-level job, he would favor low-level jobs at that time to improve the economic growth of the US. I think Trump would just do anything to improve the US economy. Now if he gonna get back to be a president again, I don’t know if he would still favor low-skilled jobs. It depends on the wealth and the economic of the nation which could impact immigration as well.
But anyway read the link below.
Interview Scheduled for EB visa
I’ve been waiting for an update on my I-485 for more than a year now and filed a I-485J almost 200 days ago. Three weeks ago, I reached out to a congresswoman to help me inquire about my case. Unexpectedly, I received an interview notice the other day but no updates on the app or online account. Yesterday, the office of the congresswoman emailed me informing the same.
* Any interview ideas/tips?
* Is it necessary to bring lawyer? what are the pros and cons?
TIA 🙏🏻

Trump won't save you!!!
Some of you keep saying if Trump is president then there won't be backlog just because the bulletin was current. BUT you fail to remember the underlying situation that made that possible. I will highlight it for you.
First, there were additional visas made available to many categories including EB3 unskilled which made it possible for the category to be current. That had nothing to do with Trump, let's just say it was a coincidence or juxtaposition.
Trump's rhetoric were not for immigrants or immigration by any means, and he backed it up by action. The executive orders he gave banning immigration from certain countries just because they don't favor the US or because the population is largely Islamic. The sidelining of international students, almost making it impossible to take online classes in the heat of the COVID pandemic. Creating a legal frontline to stopping citizenship by naturalization. Making the H1B process 10 times harder for companies to hire graduates by stipulating increase in salaries, and only allowing for companies to hire graduates with a masters degree.
These are just a spec of the actions he was putting in place which greatly has led to where we are now. Which one of you giving your approval for Trump can boldly say either you or your family will not be affected by his policies if he regains the presidency? He doesn't care about immigration period! Nothing is as cut and dried as it seems. If he comes back, he is going to push for anti immigration policies in every sector ever imagined. You and I will not be able to breathe properly in this land.
