The Department of State has released the October Visa Bulletin today.
The Bulletin offers some good news as the EB2 category for Indian Foreign
Nationals no longer remains unavailable. Starting October 1, the current
priority date for the Indian EB2 category will be June 15, 2002.
This means that any Indian foreign national holding an approved labor
certification or green card case with a priority date of June 15, 2002 or
earlier, may file their I-485, adjustment of status petition starting
October 1, 2006.
The October Bulletin also showed minor movement, of on average a month or
so, for the other remaining categories.
Finally, the October Bulletin also confirmed that the retrogression of
numbers for Schedule A workers – Physical Therapists and Registered Nurses
would not occur in October. It is expected that the retrogression will
happen in November.
