Visa Bulletin for Jan 2005

[dgc2005]

That looks like good news to me. I was expecting it to retrogress further by April.

I dont see any surprise in shusterman information
reasons, they had given more visa numbers in Q1 that exceeded the 27% rule.
they are controlling the numbers now.
Its very logical to expect that they will continue in same more for Q2 and then re-asssess the situation in April which is Q3.
Well it may move forward based on demand.
Any indication abt EB2 in any websites except that mention in Murthy.com ?
Did any one come acrosss any ?

Nope. Almost the same info seems to be there on http://www.immigration-law.com/ too - "One of the big open questions for the Chinese, Indian, and Philippines communities is what will happen after the EB-3 visa number is retrogressed to January 2005. According to the AILA, it may not start moving until March or April 2005. Accordingly, the cut-off date of January 1, 2002 may not change in the February 2005 Visa Bulletin or even in the March 2005 Visa Bulltin for these three countries. Another question is the pace of progression. It remains an open question. Please stay tuned."
