Immigrant Visa Number Retrogressed to January 2009 for EB-2 Worldwide, Philippines and Mexico, & Unavailable for China and India
The U.S. Department of State announced recently immigration visa number for employment-based preference 2 category (EB-2) for countries worldwide, Mexico and the Philippines has retrogressed to January 1, 2009 starting in the month of July 2009. EB-2 immigrant visa number for China and India continues to be unavailable.
EB-2 candidates can still be sponsored for green card such as the I-140 Petition for Alien Worker. However, if EB-2 candidates’ priority date is prior to January 2009, they will not be eligible to file for I-485, Application for Adjustment of Status starting July 2012 until immigrant visa number becomes current/available for their country of birth.
