The first digit in the categories used by VSC corresponds to the preference. The second digit used corresponds to a subcategory within the particular category. For example, E11, 12, and 13 are all Employment First Preference cases (EB1). Within EB1, there are three subcategories. These are: Extraordinary Ability (E11), Outstanding Professors and Researchers (E12), Multinational Executives and Managers (E13). The E21 designation refers to Employment Second preference (EB2) cases for members of the professions holding advanced degrees or persons of exceptional ability. A separate category exists for EB2 cases filed under the National Interest Waiver provisions. Finally, E31, 32, and EW3 are third preference (EB3) cases. The subsets are skilled workers (E31), professionals (E32) and other workers (EW3).
