The April Bulletin came out on March 9, 2005. Here is a link...
http://travel.state.gov/visa/frvi/bulletin/bulletin_2150.html

So far the Priority Dates have moved only one month at a time. Here is a summary of PD movement in 2005.

Bulletin Month...............EB3 Priority Date
-------------------------------------------
December 2004.............Current
January 2005................January 2002
February 2005..............January 2002
March 2005..................March 2002
April 2005....................April 2002
 
my prediction is it will move 1 month. ie 01-may-2002. I do not see any improvement as there is talk in various websites that uscis will further retrogress EB2 and all other categories worldwide :rolleyes:
 
Somebody posted this opinion on Murthy forum.

The April 2005 visa bulletin was made up during or around the first week of March and then published on the second week of March. So it means when the April 2005 visa bulletin was published the 27% worldwide level visas are not yet available because IT IS STILL NOT APRIL 1. APRIL 1 marks the beginning of the third quarter of the fiscal year so that is the time that visas open up again. We may know the result when May 2005 visa bulletin is published around the second week of April. Let's have our fingers crossed.

This person has posted extensive articles about the PD movement using the unused visa numbers. For details go to

and look for threads posted by DALE.

My guess it goes by one month..ie May 1st, 2002. Only during June bullentin (around June 10th) we will come to know the full impact of fourth quarter opening up...July 1st is the beginning of 4th quarter. I don't see my PD becoming current until July 1st.

I140 RFE was issued for ability to pay and option to change the category. The labor ad and the approval was in EB3. Although I had 2 Masters, and a Phd I was moved down to EB3. I wish I had the current immigration knowledge with me when labor was filed....we all learn by mistakes.
