    Philadelphia Backlog Elimination Center Tracking

    The answer is correct. EB-2/EB-3 is a category assigned by USCIS not DOL. If your ETA750 (ie your LC) has as requirements a Masters or BS + 5 years, then you will be able to file under EB-2. To be clear, it does not matter what your education is, only what is in the ETA form.

    I have no idea. If 245i cases were applied in similar ratios to non-245i cases then probably yes. By region, these were the 245i case loads in Jan 2002: San Francisco - 62,950 New York - 59,523 Atlanta - 27,209 Philadelphia - 26,230 Boston - 18,205 Dallas - 17,198 Chicago - 16,503...

    Not too many of those, retrogression didn't start impacting 245i cases until June 2005. Prior to that dates were more recent than April 2001. I am actually using stats from 2002/2003. The 7% rule means that no one country can take more than 7% but you are NOT guaranteed at least 7%. If...

    Some facts: Retrogression is set at the country level with the employment visa category. So to answer your question: no what you are saying is not correct. About your worst case scenario: There are/were about 345,000 cases in the BPCs: ~60,000 cases were Regional. I doubt more than...

    BEC Priority Date Tracker

    Based on watching a few thousand cases....I would say the following statements are true: A T-case absolutely means no 45-day letter. A P or D case does not mean a 45-day letter is on its way. A bit of speculation on my part: A case turns to P or D once the data from the paper...
