what will happen to Nurses from India

What will happen to us, we have passed our CGFNS and have to apply for GC but this new rule??/
Will this affect us ???

Please someone let us know thanks
 
Check out the siskind or shusterman sites for their newsletters. Unless Congress decides to allow unused visas to be used for these categories, nurses from India, China, and the Philippines won't be able to apply for green cards (and, apparently, this will affect nurses from other countries as well) as of January. If you have a 4-year college degree, you can probably look for H1-B sponsorship (Physical Therapists also have this option).
 
This is not a "new rule"--actually, the large number of filings in the past few years is the anomaly, for the reasons given in the url above.
 
I am wondering what will happen to us.
I filed my 140 and 485 concurrently in Februrary 2003 (I140 approved, still waiting for 485 approval), does this backlog affect me, Anyone?
