How does USCIS handle errors when the quota is gone?
USCIS has mistakenly sorted my premium processing advanced degree
application sent on April 2nd as regular quota and I lost the lottery.
I have earned a PhD from US years ago. We have refiled. I wonder, what
will USCIS do now that the advanced degree quota is gone? Do they have
some visas reserved for those kinds of errors? There is at least half
a dozen people I know in the same situation.
Also, if they accept my (re)petition, how long will it take? Will
USCIS consider the premium processing again? I have read they have a
lot of backlogs, so regular non-PP cap based receipts are going to
take until mid June to be sent.

All very interesting questions to which I do not know the answer. Here's
where a competent immigration attorney can really make a difference. Good
luck finding one though.
From the looks of it, you could even file a class action lawsuit.

It does not affect any H1B petitions though.

Yes, it is been very difficult to find answers. Only a few people have
been through it last year, so I don't know how they will handle it
this year. I'll keep waiting. Meanwhile, if someone has any insight
about our case please let me know.
