EB2 China will be current soon

[Jerrome]

Good luck in getting that information. The reality is india got just 28,703 GCs in 2007 (EB1+2+3+dependents).

Refer http://www.dhs.gov/ximgtn/statistics...ons/LPR07.shtm

My guess is for EB2 Primary it would have been around 10000 last year assuming india got 20000 EB2 approvals last year.

It wont even come close to end of 2005 by end of this year(again steadily not including the jumbo jumps at last quarter to approve low hanging fruits).

Again as i said in my previous post, We can atleast guestimate if it steadily passes beyond 2004 this year.

One more thing, there are only 7262 ROW EB2 Perm got certified (Including China, which 681) untill spet 2008. Looking at the current speed of DOL there would be addtional 3k EB2 approval till Jun 09. That makes minimum 20K left-over from ROW EB2 plus minimum 15K from EB1. So we are looking at 35K visa by end of Fiscl year.

I did some cross data verfication against ETA case numbers which are filed in EB2 and came to conclusion that this the"LEVEL" field which defines EB2 or Eb3.


2008 - LEVEL II : 4000
2007 - LEVEL II : 11495
2006 - LEVEL II : 14616
2005 - LEVEL II : 841

Last year they got 6900 or so in Eb2 . If they get that many visas they will touch 2008 soon. If 50 % projection is more then they may become current.

as a Big country they may not spare some visas for india for horizontal spill but atleast they may not share from spill.

India will get 3-4 k more Spill visa soon.. Date may move to early 2008 for India. (Eb2) Even though all people will not get GC.

Where are the dependents factored in this calculation?
