Your reasoning is nearly correct. But you are missing Two points:
1. There will be some cases from BECs which could not file AOSs in time since their labors did not clear for them in the july/aug timeframe. Only when these have cleared will the chances of further retrogression decrease.
2. ALSO - Just as an example, If there are 100000 Eb2s with PDs of 2005. We know that there are NOT 10000 visa #s available for EB2s, in that case too, the dates will retrogress - since thats the only way they can prevent visa #s being used.
Am I making much sense ?
My point here is:
Now there is NO reason for the DOS to miscalculate or not know how many applications are out there for AOS.
Someone mentioned that some BEC ppl were not able to apply for AOS coz their applications did not get released in time, that is a valid point. So maybe we should see one last backward movement if any and then it should be strictly forward movement. VERY SLOW movement i agree but forward movement.

Ya I have applied 2 months before my visa expired..Guru's any expert on this forum knows aout the period of stay after an appeal for h1 extension denial..
Unless you receive the denial letter from the USCIS we cannot give any advise. We need to know the reason. If its a trivial matter or not you can definitely do MTR and provide additional information. However this seems to be a case where USCIS has been overzealous in denying the case.
They might be asking some kind of Agreement or Letter from client based on the recent denials. Please be prepared to get such a letter from your client stating the extent of your project ( try to get a letter for the extent of your H1 or beyond that to cover yourself).
goodluck and keep the forum posted on your progress so others may benefit
- cheers

485 fess from Jul 30th will be 1010USD. This also has EAD & AP fees built into it and you can keep on renewing EAD & AP with out paying fees every year unil you get your GC.
The first-time EAD/AP will definitely be free. But I could not find any explicit language indicating that renewals will be free. Here is the relevant section from the federal register notice:
Form I-485. For filing an application for permanent resident status
or creation of a record of lawful permanent residence--$930 for an
applicant fourteen years of age or older; $600 for an applicant under
the age of fourteen years when submitted concurrently for adjudication
with the Form I-485 of a parent and the applicant is seeking to adjust
status as a derivative of the parent, based on a relationship to the
same individual who provides the basis for the parent's adjustment of
status, or under the same legal authority as the parent; no fee for an
applicant filing as a refugee under section 209(a) of the Act; provided
that no additional fee will be charged for a request for travel
document (advance parole) or employment authorization filed by an
applicant who has paid the Form I-485 application fee, regardless of
whether the Form I-131 or Form I-765 is required to be filed by such
applicant to receive these benefits.
At best, this is ambiguous as to whether a fee will be required on renewals.

If you really need help on this kind of case. Talk to Shah Peerally in Fremont, a good attorney.510-798-2742. He is accessible and good.
Thx.
Wasn't this the same "good attorney" who made some very immature, irresponsible and completely unsubstantiated remarks about immigrants or aspiring immigrants as quoted by a recent article on a local bay area newspaper?

Anders, good job on the hockey pics. I have a couple of questions.
Did the lighting necessitate your using ISO 1600? What was the lens you used? Monopod? What metering mode? Did the ice cause any problems?
The reason I am asking is that I recently did some boys and girls high school portrait shots and they want me to shoot some games. The lighting at the school's rink seems like I would not need ISO 1600 and still get to shoot wide open and high SS.
Here is the link for the portraits that I did shoot and would like your opinion: I shot these with the 1Ds MII and 85 1.2 (Should have had a better backdrop IMO)

I was listing to NPR Diane Rim show. Not sure who guests were. But When Diana asked if there is any chance that bill might come back.. He said, no bill won't come back but there is chance that some pieces of immigration may come in seperate pieces in around sep. He did say some bill might come for High skilled.. He gave example of Bill Clinton's health care immigration bill.
Anybody got chance to hear to NPR today?

Could you please point out the section where it says dual intent for H1 will be removed ?
You will have to prove that you will come back to your home country after the end of the H1B. Look at page 237 of the new bill. It has the following:
(c) CLARIFYING THE IMMIGRANT INTENT PROVISION.� Subsection (b) of
14 section 214 of the Immigration and Nationality Act (8 U.S.C. 1184(b))
15 is amended�
16
17 (1) by striking the parenthetical phrase �(other than a
18 nonimmigrant described in subparagraph (L) or (V) of section
19 101(a)(15), and other than a nonimmigrant described in any
20 provision of section 101(a)(15)(H)(i) except subclause (b1) of
21 such section) " in the first sentence; and
22
23 (2) by striking �under section 101(a)(15)" and inserting in its
24 place �under the immigration laws.".

My h1 started in 2009 October which means I have 4 years and 9 months more of h1 left with me
Do you think moving to a new company should be a better idea?
considering the fact that my application would be rejected eventually?
any new company would also take a year to start my application and would mostly take 6 months to get a new job! effectively I would have 3 years of h1 cycle 2 for the new one
should i just wait and see if i get audited and if I do just move to a new place?
What would be my best bet?
-chehuan
Chehuan,
Even if you change your job there is no guarantee that your New PERM/I140 won't get audited with new employer! So it all depends on the JOB and the employer. Best bet would be get EB3140 approved and then try to find a EB2 qualified Job and willing employer. Remember not all Jobs qualify for EB2! DOL and USCIS know the minimum job requirements for almost every position they receive PERM/I140 application. The more employer/attorney's try to apply for EB2 the more audits DOL/USCIS will follow.:(

I actually did the stop payment back on the 14th and I have checked my account everyday and nothing...... Do you think they will reject it? I hate to lose the receipt date of July 2nd....
If there is no way you can stop the stop payment, then you should not get all anxious.
You were considering yourself lucky that your PD became current in July, unlucky that you filed a day too soon, but lucky that you came to know just in time, lucky that you still got your receipt, unlucky that you stopped payment, lucky that you have a second application in case your first one is rejected....
So you started being lucky and you might end up being lucky... Don't worry about all the unlucky episodes in between and hey, why worry about losing just 6 weeks of receipt date. Think about pre June-15th days :):)

Vishwak,
Thanks for the quick reply. For your answer to Question2.. my employer and some suggests not to file Ac21. just for the record sake i would send them a note that i would come back to the sponsoring company.
Do you think it is an option not to file Ac21 and still manage ? or will there be any issues for not filing ? any way i have to go back to the sponsor when its time...
If u dont file CA21 , just make sure , u dont leave and re-enter usa.
U may expect trouble at the airport.
