I am from Singapore and filed for RIR EB2 in November 2004. I started preparing for perm filing in July and now I am ready to file EB3 perm. My attorney in July told me to file perm EB3 because he thought that EB3 will not retrogress for other countries(I can file for 485 immediatel after perm), and he thought perm EB3 is easier to pass than perm EB2. Now what do I do?
If I file perm EB3 now, since it has been retrogressed to 2001, I might have to wait for 4 years before I can file 485.
If I do not file perm EB3 now and wait for my RIR EB2 to clear Philly BEC, because EB2 has not retrogressed for other countries, it will be very fast once my RIR is cleared. But who the hell knows how long it will take for my RIR to get out of BEC???
Either way, I think I am screwed. I should have done perm EB2. But given the situation, what should I do? Should I go ahead with perm EB3 filing? Thanks for your advice!!!!
