MU Law Analysis
Both the Philippines and Worldwide (All Other) EB-3 continue
to be current. Our opinion remains that these categories will stay current for
the foreseeable future.
India EB-1 remains current, which continues to lead to extra visas will
flowing down to India EB2 and EB3. India
EB-2 again moved ahead, this time by 3 months. EB-3 also jumped up. It moved 6 months, into 2011. We could see favorable processing times for
the rest of 2021.
China EB-2 and EB-3 again both moved forward by a few months, a trend that should
continue. China EB-1 remains
reflecting the paucity of visas that were issued under the last year of the
Trump presidency and the COVID pandemic.
