On Wednesday, June 10, the Department of State announced the visa predictions for the movement of priority dates in certain categories. Some of the major highlights are in the EB2 category. The wait time for the EB2 India category has been extended due to the large number of applications waiting to be approved for green cards and the low number of visas available. It is likely this category will not be available in August or September and applicants will wait additional years to be approved. Likewise, the EB2 China category is backed up and applicants will wait longer than expected to receive approval for green cards. In the EB3 Worldwide category, there will be no more visas available for the rest of the fiscal year. The Department of State estimates the cut-off date as of October 1, 2009 will be March 1, 2003. Therefore, lengthy delays are also expected in this category.
