The Aug 2006 Bulletin had provided some indication of unused family visa numbers of previous year (@4000) added to Employment based visas. The previous year the info came in Sep (@8500 visas, which of course were wasted later). Any idea what the numbers are for this year? Hope the Sep Bulletin provides this info and brings a little more relief to guys who have filed their 485s in July!
I went back and looked up how DOS did it last year from the stats they have published. Assuming the same holds good this year, we should be getting just over 7000 visas from the unused Family visas of 2006 to the pool of 2007 EB! Yippee, that is a real good addition!
Please keep pressing DOS/USCIS to use these fully and not waste like the previous year!
