July 2019 Visa Bulletin Check-In


Recommended Posts

Posted

Employment-Based, First Preference (EB1) Category

The EB1 category for India and China is not expected to advance at all before the start of fiscal year 2020 (FY20), which begins October 1, 2019. Mr. Oppenheim aims to have the EB1 India cutoff date return to February 22, 2017, in the October 2019 Visa Bulletin.

The EB1 category for all countries other than India and China likely will retrogress in the near future. However, Mr. Oppenheim hopes the EB1 category will return to being current for these countries at the start of FY20.

Employment-Based, Second Preference (EB2) Category

With the exception of India and China, the EB2 category generally has been current. Due to an uptick in demand, however, Mr. Oppenheim expects to have to impose a cutoff date for the EB2 Worldwide category, perhaps as soon as the August 2019 Visa Bulletin.

The EB2 China category continues to advance, and may share the same cutoff date as EB2 Worldwide, once that category retrogresses. As for EB2 India, Mr. Oppenheim expects it to advance by no more than one week per month.

Employment-Based, Third Preference (EB3) Category

It now appears that all of the EB3 Worldwide visa numbers will be used, causing this category to retrogress. This is bad news for India, as any unused EB3 numbers would have helped with the EB3 India backlogs. The lack of spillover from EB3 Worldwide could negatively impact the EB3 India cutoff date.
