MU Law Analysis
Once
again, there was good news and bad news for the retrogressed EB2 and EB3
categories. The DOS did not move the Indian
and Chinese EB-3s. On the other
hand, the dates for India and China EB-2, progressed. India EB-2 moved ahead by a bit over two months. China EB-2 advanced by three weeks. These progressions were about half of the
progressions that we saw with the December Visa Bulletin.
The story
remains positive for Philippines and Worldwide EB-3, where dates held at
Current. They are expected to stay
Current for the foreseeable future.
