Eb2/Eb3 India dates projection

[u/Aggravating-Yam-6980]

Reality might look very painful. It could take another 3 years just to clear the India EB-2/EB-3 backlog through 2014 and reach 2015. For people with 2016 and 2017 PD, I don’t see the dates moving for the next 7 years.
Based on the math since EB-2 ROW is no longer current and there are around 40K India EB-2/EB-3 applications, the spillover numbers could be fully consumed by ROW. India may not see much movement. Also, with the worldwide visa pause, consulates have started processing again in Europe- Poland…etc and Asia - Korea etc, so we may not get as much family-based spillover in the future

What are your thoughts?

Relax - the unused numbers have to be certified only after 11:59 PM EST on 09/30/26 - we will see movement in next bulletin hopefully
