EB-1 China, EB-1 India, and EB-1 Worldwide will remain current in November and for the foreseeable future. While demand and number usage is high, a retrogression of the EB-1 category is not expected for the first half of the fiscal year, which ends September 30.

EB-2 Worldwide will remain current in November and retrogression is not expected in the foreseeable future.
EB-2 India is expected to move forward, possibly to November 2008 date by March 2017.

EB-2 China advanced four months to July 15, 2012, and EB-3 China advanced three months to April 15, 2013. EB-2 China was previously up to September 2012, and is likely to move up again to September 2012 no later than February 2017. Also, EB-2 China may advance more rapidly.
