Retrogression of Priority Dates Ceases for the meantime
18. June 2007 by dmo.
After seeing a significant movement on the priority dates for the employment based, or Schedule A visas, for Filipino Nurses the past month, the Department of State has updated the Visa Bulletin for July 2007 to a current “C” status. This means that all the applications affected by the retrogression of October 2006 are going to be scheduled for an interview once their approved petitions are forwarded to the embassies through the National Visa Center (NVC). There may be an expected delay in receiving an appointment date due to the bulk of approved petitions now ready for interview. The USCIS is accepting I-140 and I-485 applications again. There is no assurance that the retrogression will be permanently ceased and we may expect another retrogression if no good resolution for the nursing shortage will be passed in the US Congress before October of this year.
For those who have patiently waited for this very good news on retrogression, congratulations from Filipino Nurses 2 US.
