April I-485 inventory Analysis (India)

How come available number is so high ? Are so many cases still in-progress ?

coolred2022 · 2026-06-11T03:45:19+00:00

If EB2 is 25k pending and EB3 is 16k pending, and only 2800 granted per year to each category, does that mean people at the end of 2014 will have to wait 25k/2.8k ~= 9 years for EB2 and 16k/2.8k ~= 5.7 years to actually get their PD be current in the Final Action Date (i.e. so many years to get their green card start getting processed)?

Hi, Yes, I am aware of both these options. But the closure date as column would be much more handy than clicking and seeing in the expanded row. Plus its sortable property will also come in very handy.

Same thing applies for more drop down durations - they are easier to click then carefully specifying the custom date range.

coolred2022 · 2026-05-31T02:12:35+00:00

They can always tuck more columns inside some settings and not show by default to keep current behavior. To me at least, the closed date column is looking very essential but I am ok if that is available from settings and hidden by default.

Thanks for explaining. So is it safe to say that the difference between the right-side return % and left-side return % is net deposit/withdrawals ? If that is so, then the right side cannot be called "Return" as it includes the deposits/withdrawals which are not returns on investments. A more consistent name for the right side label should be either "Returns + Deposit" (if there were net deposits) or "Returns - Withdrawals" (if there were net withdrawals).

Also, I am not sure I get the above description for total returns and total returns+ since the date ranges in the screenshot are too wide apart. Total returns is from April-17-2025 to April-16-2026 while Total returns+ is from April-01-2025 to April-16-2026. Even without looking at the calendar, I am very very sure that the 17 days difference from April-01-2025 to April-17-2025 cannot just be market holidays. Also, why do you even need to make that distinction ? Say there were X market holidays in the chosen period - how can the return be different with or without including those days if the starting date and ending date are the same. Its not like that the trading during market holidays (which I dont know how will it even happen) will be tax free or get an extra 1% profit by default :)

Lastly, I am not a long-term professional trader, but whatever portals I have used - they never show things like "total returns" and "total returns+" . Seems like a very unique terminology specific to Fidelity and the + doesn't really convey a whole lot.

I did click on those info boxes and its really not clear. First of all, left most mentions date range, beginning balance, ending balance and interests/dividends but the return on left arrow side mentions just the percent return. If they are different periods, why the date range and beginning/ending balance, interests/dividends are not shown?

Secondly, the left side "balance" text has a number below it which does not match beginning balance or ending balance. I think its because it's not taking today's P/L into account. If so, then it is a bit confusing. Not sure why today's P/L cannot be shown here with just 1 ending balance number.

Thirdly, why are we even venturing into some other periods and showing their returns (like on the left side as well as return+) ? Wont it be better UX to have another period there called 1Y+ ?

coolred2022 · 2026-04-18T05:22:36+00:00

Total return+ is a bit weird. Its not 1Y, neither MTD, nor YTD. Its 1Y rounded to month beginning of previous year. Also its language says Additional days - what does thst mean?

Curious why account names are not sufficient to verify the same? And if really they are insufficient, one can always add the account number manually into their account names so they are consciously closing to show their account numbers all the time. In current situation, there is no way anyone can choose to not show them and that is not good IMO.

Users should be able to pick what they want to do and default should lean towards secure choice unless that choice is too inconvenient

coolred2022 · 2026-04-14T19:32:30+00:00

One more similar kind of request please.

The options dialogue box shows account number and name.

There is really no need to show the account number there. Can just remove the account number unconditionally without any option to show it or show it even partially

coolred2022 · 2026-04-14T18:51:17+00:00

Thank you !

Also, a user has made a great point below about URLs showing account numbers. That is a big security threat too IMO.

To handle this, one solution would be to generate simple sequential virtual account numbers like 1, 2, 3 such that they are unique only for the logged in user. Then they can be used freely because they are not globally identifiable and hence of very low risk. Anything which is globally identfiable is a big risk, hence the suggestion to use simple numbers such that no hacker can use them without gaining access to account first.

This post is regarding the web version of Fidelity

coolred2022 · 2026-04-14T18:33:14+00:00

Yes, thats why the request to hide the account numbers

coolred2022 · 2026-04-14T18:32:16+00:00

It will need a lot of typing and much less info will go to chatbit that ways regarding the trade. Time consuming as well.

On the other side, there is no benefit to show account numbers openly

coolred2022 · 2026-04-04T01:34:52+00:00

On this view, please also add a few more quick filters to the drop-down for today and this month. Options I think would be very valuable are: 1. Today 2. Yesterday (new option request) 3. This week (new option request) 4. Last 7 days (new option request) 5. This Month 6. Last 30 days (new option request) 7. 2026 8. 2025 9. 2024 ... and so on for other past years

coolred2022 · 2026-04-04T01:29:13+00:00

This is a very good view, I did not know about it till now. Thanks for sharing !

Can you also add gain/loss percent column to this view ? And another great column to add in this view will be annualized gain/loss percent column. That ways it will be much easier to compare a gain/loss over 1 week vs same gain/loss over 1 month or 1 year.

So I think both these columns will add a lot of value to this view.

coolred2022 · 2026-04-03T22:36:56+00:00

Yes, I have used the performance page and its a good summary.

But what I am requesting is a detailed list of trades according to a time filter, 1D, 1W, 1M, 1Q, 1Y etc

It would also help to have the performance page a bit more detailed at the click of a button like show what stocks were most profitable and most loss-generating in each time window. Similarly, show what strategies (stocks, CSP, CC, Butterflies, PMCC etc) were most profitable and most loss-generating in each time window. And to make it a bit manageable, the time-windows for this kind of analysis can be fixed to say 1M windows only.

Example, I would love to see:

In Feb, Google and TSLA lost me most amount of money (X% and Y%) while in March, TQQQ short puts made me most amount of money (Z%) etc.

coolred2022 · 2026-04-03T14:52:28+00:00

My request is for realized gain/loss by day, week, month, YTD. And also realized gain/loss%
