@gc what’s the point of having filing date as march 2021 since everyone from FY 21 have already filed their I-485 and are waiting for their PD to be current. since the backlog from 2020 is done filling date should resume back to September 2022 where it was before retrogression.

@sam young i am hoping for big jump they should allow the aos to file technically

@G C date of filing is just to let people file their I-485 & other documents it has nothing to do with visa availability. yes final action date depends on the number of visa availability. if you see in previous years even in retrogression date of filing was always current or close to current. the reason they are issuing so many visas for consular is because the embassy were closed for 2 years and they had large numbers of cases piled up which caused retrogression. now we just have to wait for October VB but I don’t really have high hopes
