January 2005 Visa Bulletin
The January 2005 Visa Bulletin released recently provides little hope
for improvement in the progression of priority dates for categories that
have retrogressed. As highlighted in GT’s September 15, 2005 News Flash,
the January Bulletin reports the continued retrogression of visa numbers,
although priority date advancement has improved slightly since the original
October Visa Bulletin when visa retrogression was announced for second and
third preference workers, they are still as far back as 1999 for Indian
national in the third preference category.
The complete January Visa Bulletin can be
viewed here. Since the release of the October Bulletin, Greenberg Traurig
has continued to partner with industry coalitions and key Congressmen to
advocate for immigration relief from these annual quotas on employment-based
immigration.
