Visa bulletin released for June 2014

[Pokymon]

EB2-India 15-Nov-2004
EB3-India 15-Oct-2003

EB3 - ROW retrogressed to April 01 2011 from Oct 2012
EB3- China has retrogressed to 01 Oct 2006

 

Chinese downgraded from EB2 to EB3 because until May 2014 EB3 was better, now they have to upgrade from EB3 to EB2. What a chaos?

 

Legal Employment Immigration is dead. Only way to get GC is by jumping wagon to EB1C no PERM, POW, Qualification is needed.

It is rarely a good idea to go from EB2 to EB3. In the long run, EB2 will be faster.

And EB1C gets a lot of scrutiny nowadays, because of abuse. So, doing things the right way is the best way to go, and that will always be the case. Trying to "beat" the system will only result in problems. The authorities have seen all these shady workaround attempts a long time ago.

April 2014 inventory numbers are released, here is the shocking news:

 

Look at EB1C numbers:

2014 = 5,398 (3 months alone)
2013 = 10,845
2012 = 1,077

 

Compared to 2012, there is a huge jump in 2013 and 2014, with this rate, EB2 and EB3 categories will be retrogressed further in the future,

abuse by fraud desi companies.

[tusharvk]

whether eb2, eb3 or eb1c, all should get scrutiny anyway to prevent abuse.

The backlog is not getting cleared soon; only need to have injection of unused numbers from other categories. Like what happened in FY 2011-12 and again in early FY2014.
