Analysis
As we
mentioned last month, we have recently added another row, EB-3 Other
Workers. These are EB-3’s for
occupations that require less than two years of education or experience to
perform the job. Among healthcare
occupations, nurse aides are the common.
The retrogression to 08May2019 probably reflects full usage of this
category in this fiscal year.
The India
and China EB-2 categories each advanced.
India improved by three months and China improved by one month.
EB-3 India and EB-3 China will remain unchanged from May, as they did in June. We do not expect forward progress in these
categories for the rest of the fiscal year.
The WW
and Philippine EB-3 remained current.
We may see a retrogression of WW and Philippine EB-3 before the end of
the fiscal year, once the full allotment of visas is exhausted. This
is common, and nothing to be too concerned about, as we have explained in the past.
