February 2013 Visa Bulletin: EB-2 India Remains Unchanged (again)

U.S. Department of State (DOS) has just released the February 2013 Visa Bulletin which is the fifth Visa Bulletin for the Fiscal Year (FY) 2013.  The cutoff dates for Employment-Based second preference (EB-2) India continues to disappoint at September 1, 2004.  Many of our clients in this category were eagerly awaiting this bulletin to anticipate rate of forward movement over the coming months but it appears the demand under this category is too high and the forward movement, if any, for EB-2 India will continue to be very slow.

We will continue to monitor developments on this front and will provide our readers with additional information once we receive it from the DOS.
