Guest Posted July 9, 2013 Report Posted July 9, 2013 [indent=1] [b]Employment- Based[/b] [b]All Chargeability Areas Except Those Listed[/b] [b]CHINA- mainland born[/b] [b]INDIA[/b] [b]MEXICO[/b] [b]PHILIPPINES[/b] 1st C C C C C 2nd C 08AUG08 01JAN08 C C 3rd 01JAN09 01JAN09 22JAN03 01JAN09 22OCT06 Other Workers 01JAN09 22MAR04 22JAN03 01JAN09 22OCT06 4th C C C C C Certain Religious Workers C C C C C 5th Targeted EmploymentAreas/ Regional Centers and Pilot Programs C C C C C *Employment Third Preference Other Workers Category: Section 203(e) of the Nicaraguan and Central American Relief Act (NACARA) passed by Congress in November 1997, as amended by Section 1(e) of Pub. L. 105-139, provides that once the Employment Third Preference Other Worker (EW) cut-off date has reached the priority date of the latest EW petition approved prior to November 19, 1997, the 10,000 EW numbers available for a fiscal year are to be reduced by up to 5,000 annually beginning in the following fiscal year. This reduction is to be made for as long as necessary to offset adjustments under the NACARA program. Since the EW cut-off date reached November 19, 1997 during Fiscal Year 2001, the reduction in the EW annual limit to 5,000 began in Fiscal Year 2002. 6. The Department of State has a recorded message with visa availability information which can be heard at: (202) 663-1541. This recording is updated on or about the tenth of each month with information on cut-off dates for the following month. [b]B. [u]DIVERSITY IMMIGRANT (DV) CATEGORY FOR THE MONTH OF AUGUST[/u][/b] Section 203(c) of the INA provides up to 55,000 immigrant visas each fiscal year to permit additional immigration opportunities for persons from countries with low admissions during the previous five years. The NACARA stipulates that beginning with DV-99, and for as long as necessary, up to 5,000 of the 55,000 annually-allocated diversity visas will be made available for use under the NACARA program. [b]This resulted in reduction of the DV-2013 annual limit to 50,000[/b]. DV visas are divided among six geographic regions. No one country can receive more than seven percent of the available diversity visas in any one year. For [u]August[/u], immigrant numbers in the DV category are available to qualified DV-2013 applicants chargeable to all regions/eligible countries as follows. When an allocation cut-off number is shown, visas are available only for applicants with DV regional lottery rank numbers [u]BELOW[/u] the specified allocation cut-off number: Region All DV Chargeability Areas Except Those Listed Separately [b]AFRICA[/b] 81,200 Except:Nigeria 19,800 [b]ASIA[/b] CURRENT [b]EUROPE[/b] CURRENT Except:Uzbekistan 19,000 [b]NORTH AMERICA (BAHAMAS)[/b] 3 [b]OCEANIA[/b] 1,600 [b]SOUTH AMERICA, and the CARIBBEAN[/b] CURRENT Entitlement to immigrant status in the DV category lasts only through the end of the fiscal (visa) year for which the applicant is selected in the lottery. The year of entitlement for all applicants registered for the DV-2013 program ends as of September 30, 2013. DV visas may not be issued to DV-2013 applicants after that date. Similarly, spouses and children accompanying or following to join DV-2013 principals are only entitled to derivative DV status until September 30, 2013. DV visa availability through the very end of FY-2013 cannot be taken for granted. Numbers could be exhausted prior to September 30. [b]C. [u]THE DIVERSITY (DV) IMMIGRANT CATEGORY RANK[/u] [u]CUT-OFFS WHICH WILL APPLY IN SEPTEMBER[/u][/b] For [u]September[/u], immigrant numbers in the DV category are available to qualified DV-2013 applicants chargeable to all regions/eligible countries as follows. When an allocation cut-off number is shown, visas are available only for applicants with DV regional lottery rank numbers [u]BELOW[/u] the specified allocation cut-off number: Region All DV Chargeability Areas Except Those Listed Separately [b]AFRICA[/b] CURRENT [b]ASIA[/b] CURRENT [b]EUROPE[/b] CURRENT [b]NORTH AMERICA (BAHAMAS)[/b] CURRENT [b]OCEANIA[/b] CURRENT [b]SOUTH AMERICA, and the CARIBBEAN[/b] CURRENT [b]D. [u]VISA AVAILABILITY[/u][/b] FAMILY-sponsored: F2A: This category has become “Current” for August, and is expected to remain so for the next several months. This action has been taken in an effort to generate an increased level of demand. Despite the fact that there are large amounts of registered F2A demand, currently there are not enough applicants who are actively pursuing final action on their case to fully utilize all of the available numbers. EMPLOYMENT-based: India Second: This cut-off date has been advanced in an effort to fully utilize the numbers available under the overall Employment Second preference annual limit. It is expected that such movement will generate a significant amount of new India demand during the coming months. These changes for the Family F2A, and India Employment Second preference categories reflect actions which have been taken based on current applicant demand patterns. Readers should expect that some type of “corrective” action will be required at some point during FY-2014 in an effort to maintain number use within the applicable annual limits. Such action would involve the establishment and retrogression of such cut-off dates, and could occur at any time. [b]E.
