DOS Releases Visa Bulletin for the Start of Fiscal Year 2009
The U.S. Department of State (DOS) has issued its Visa Bulletin for October 2008, which is also the first Visa Bulletin for Fiscal Year 2009. Employment-based third (EB-3) preference categories, which had been unavailable since July 2008 for all countries, received an influx of numbers. The cut-off dates for China and India are in 2001, while Mexico’s EB-3 dates cut off in 2002. Priority dates of January 1, 2005, and earlier, are current for EB-3 from the Philippines and all other countries.
While the October Visa Bulletin contained good news for EB-3 beneficiaries and Other Workers, for whom the dates jumped back to January 1, 2003, it was more disappointing for employment-based second (EB-2) preference workers from China and India. In these categories, the priority dates retrogressed from 2006 to April 1, 2004 (for China) and April 1, 2003 (for India). Immigrant visa availability for all other employment-based preference categories remained the same.
The DOS warns in this month’s bulletin that little, if any, forward movement can be expected as the fiscal year continues due to the excess number of Forms I-485, Application to Register Permanent Resident or to Adjust Status, already on file with the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) and awaiting visa numbers. The USCIS accepted more adjustment applications than were needed to meet the FY 2008 quotas, thus resulting in a backlog. The DOS predicts that the cut-off dates are not likely to advance until the USCIS has determined the extent of its I-485 backlog and how this affects how many more applications it can accept for FY 2009.

Topic: Got RFE today: I-485 India EB2 PD Mar 2005 @TSC July 2007 Filer, I-140 approved
i cant see these lazy bums even bothering to send an RFE unless they have a visa # available..
whose to say...they work in such idiotic mysterious ways |
Topic: Got RFE today: I-485 India EB2 PD Mar 2005 @TSC July 2007 Filer, I-140 approved
my sense of this whole madness is that they have already assigned a visa # to the case before thye start processing it. the RFE, if approved should result in a GC regardless of next mnths retrogression |
Topic: Spoke to Attorneys on EB2 after numerous posts/news that it is exhausted
Not sure how many people will buy it but i sure do. My lawyer , as i was discusisng the rumors of the EB2 being exhausted and no more EB2 being processed, went into the AILA web site and said that she did not find anything there. She said that if the DOS did indeed release such information it would be posted first on the AILA website for common access to all immigration attorneys.
She did say that they are slowing down the processing of EB2's to tide them over till end sept. they do not want to have to retrogress dates again mid month and lose credibility as they did last yr with the July fiasco.
I hope you guys keep the faith... |
Topic: EAD renewal -QUESTION
