Hi:

I havent seen any discussions about GC quota that exists for Indians...Can anyone shed light on this !

Thanks
 
No Title

Section 202 prescribes that the per-country limit for employment based immigrants is set at 7% of 140,000. So, that means, for any country (obviously including India), no more than 9,800 GC\'s can be issued per year. However, as per the new law (S.2045), this restriction is removed (pending endorsement by the INS). The proposal is also to use the unused numbers over the past 3 years.

thanks....but my understanding is that ..all these laws are still on hold...does this impact our current apps...especially those of us on this board waiting for 485 approvals

does this means all indians will start getting GC... those who came recently will get GC much faster then us..

what will be the future of H1 guys if all of them start getting GCs very soon?

no..it doesnt mean that at all...

Sorry..what exactly are u asking ? In any case, assuming that you are waiting for your 485....you dont really have to worry about others getting it faster than you.......you are ahead of the game and stand to benefit if this law is implemented..
