In huge news, (not covered by CNN, Fox, or anywhere else, fake or otherwise) the EB3 category for India surged forward by one (1) entire day ! The rest of the Visa Bulletin was not much better as it announced that the EB1 category will soon retrogress for India and China and the EB2 category for the “all other world” and the Philippines will retrogress as early as July. Although summer retrogression is a necessary byproduct of the use it or lose it statutory scheme that allocates immigrant visas, it can be disruptive. We remain hopeful that among all of the talk of the need for immigration reform that retrogression relief is a topic being considered. You can find a copy of the May Visa bulletin here.
