It is based on Qualification and/or job expirence.
To apply under EB2 you should have either BS and 5 years of experience or MS and 3 years of experince. If you lack these conditions then you need to apply in EB3. It doesn't matter during AOS approval. It did matter when there was cutoff date for applying for AOS. EB2 had later priority date for applying than EB3.
Thanks to everyone for the answers. I guess I just have to wait. Am always looking for any possible reason that my case might be "fast-tracked". Wishful thinking.
EBx categories: Looking from a slightly different angle:
EB3's: Mostly those guys and gals who r still unamrried who r waiting to get this sucker GC approved soon so that they can move on with a different life
EB2's: Married with/without kid(s) and starting to worry about further more mundane things like house/refi in life (me included)
EB1's: Those who r married more likely to their love of doctorates/Ph.Ds etc. and will now start thinking of their different type of spouse (a guy or gal).
Guys, no offense meant here to any one in any category. Just an effort to lighten the moods......................
