The Department of State has just released the July 2013 Visa Bulletin. This is the first of the three fiscal-year fourth quarter Visa Bulletins. The US Fiscal Year ends on September 30, 2013.
This Visa Bulletin continue to show steady progress in the EB-3 numbers for All Other and China. We are now into 2009 for both categories.
India's EB-3 remained in January 2003. India EB-2 remained frozen at September 2004. The Philippines EB-3 modestly improved to October 2006.

I notice they say they don't expect numbers for worldwide EB3 to move much over next 3 months do you think that will be the case?
ReplyDeleteAlso when my priority date becomes current do you hear from them promptly or a bit before they update the visa bulletin or do you contact them?
@Lanyu- Unfortunately I do not expect EB3 dates to move much. We generally hear from NVC within 30 days of the progression.
