Sorry EB3 folks

Given the significant pending demand in the EB-3 India category, why do the visa numbers that the agencies are trying to use in EB-2 not “fall down” to EB-3 for use in that category?

Under the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA), visas are made available in the EB-3 category in a number not to exceed 28.6% of the overall employment-based limit for the fiscal year, plus any visas “not required” in EB-1 and EB-2.  DOS and USCIS interpret “not required” to mean that visas must first be made available to all potential applicants in a given category. To put it another way, before visas are deemed “not required” in a particular category, DOS must first set the category “Current” for all countries in the Visa Bulletin, allow anyone eligible to apply with USCIS or DOS, and then consider if there is a lack of demand for visas within the category. (See, for example, how EB-1 has been current for all of FY 2022, and numbers are therefore falling down to EB-2.)  Given that hundreds of thousands of individuals are in the queue for EB-2 visas, the argument that visas could be considered “not required” in that category is inconsistent with the statute.
