EB3 or EB2
New to these Visa Bulletin numbers, my friends and I have some questions.
If I am from Canada or England, am I still subject to the Visa numbers if I am EB3?
Suppose one is a Chiropractor or a Dentist (ie: requiring a Doctor or Chiropractor or Doctor in Dentistry degree). Both programs requires some university Pre-requisites. Can that Dentist or Chiropractor apply under EB-2 (assuming he has very little work experience but his labor is approved?)
How long has EB-3 been unavailable for?

My 6 years of h1B expire in may 06.
my PD is feb 2003 - labor about to be approved.
If i find a new job and apply for labor again the PERM route will my PD remain the same ie feb 2003?
Is it true that I can get 1 yeat extensions based on the fact that my pd is feb 2003 at earlier employer?
I am hearing conflicting opinions. Does anyone have a reliable source that you can point me to ?

Stay with your current compamy at least until your 140 gets approved. Get a copy of the approval notice from your employer and then you can safely change employers (if you want). Once 140 is approved, the PD (priority date) permanently belongs to you even if you change employers. This is what I understand from Mr. Rajiv Khanna's explanation. E-mail him if you have further doubts. He is very nice and have seen him responding to some of our queries via e-mails. Best of luck!
carry earlier PD after 140 approved. apply h1b >=7 year extension based on old labor pending 365 days.LC_blues said:
For all the people who have doubts about changing jobs before they are able to file 485 due to retrogression, please read this carefully and you will find all the answers yourself:

Some hope..
Seems like some encouraging news...

If this is true then we are looking at a big jump in the retrogression dates by next year.

Status Field is Empty
Last Friday, I send a Status Inquire to Philadelphia BEC and got the response in one hour. But I found that the status field in the Screen is empty (blank). my status is RIR before. What does this mean? Do I need to talk with Lawyer about this? Does someone else get same screen like mine?

don't worry
Some BEC guys are intentionally doing this. It has happened to some guys before and you may find the earlier posts within this forum. But you do NOT need to worry about the blank field.

May not be!
True that CIS publishes VISA Bulletin during September.
But, we have seen in the past, they have published intrim ammendment of VISA bulletin as well. Keep the hopes high (Is the only thing we can do at this juncture!).
Good luck.

Regional Vs State
It is true that Dallas is only processing Regoinal LC now and not touching State at all? My LC is in State Level when it was moved to Dallas. We have Aug 2004 priority date for California. Thinking of moving job and filing for perm. Any helps or ideas will be appreicated.

At least part of this is not true.
"reallocation of the diversity visa (55,000) numbers by eliminating the DV category".
DV Application has already been invited and the department of state will start accepting applications for 2007 starting from Oct 5.
http://travel.state.gov/visa/immigrants/types/types_1318.html.
And this is for 2007 quota. 2006 is alrady done last year. So only possibility of "reallocation of the diversity visa (55,000) numbers" starting from 2008 not before that. Which starts from Oct 2007.
Long way to go (unless they capture DV Visas from future)

According to Phi BEC Screenshot, Case Status: Certified
I believe the hard copy will arrive somewhere within 2 weeks to 2 months.
I got two replies from Phi BEC, one shows the status "certified", and in the second email the status shows blank.
It is about time to file for I-140.
