December 2011 Employment Based Visa Bulletin
The Department of State released the lasted visa bulletin for December 2011 on November 10, 2011.
For the month of December 2011, the EB-1 category was still current for nationals all over the world. In EB-2 category, the cut-off dates moves forward from November 1, 2007 to March 15, 2008 both for Chinese Mainland nationals and Indian nationals. In the EB-3 category, the cut-off dates moved forward from August 22, 2004 to September 8, 2004 for Chinese Mainland nationals and moved forward from July 22, 2002 to August 1, 2002 for Indian nationals.
For the recently popular EB-5 investment immigration, the visa number now is still current world wide even though more people are submitting their applications.
From January to October 2011, our firm received 223 NIW case approvals. In addition, from January to October 2011, our firm also received 157 EB-1 case approvals.
Again, before you start the application process, it is imperative that you consult with a highly trained legal professional, particularly since USCIS has become stricter with EB-1 applications after a memo was released on August 18, 2010. In essence, the USCIS memo breaks the EB-1 evaluation process up into two parts:
1) Evaluating whether the applicant meets the baseline criteria for the immigration category and 2) determining whether the applicant's evidence demonstrates the required high level of expertise for the immigration category. In the second part of the review process the USCIS will evaluate the evidence to see if, as a whole, it proves by a preponderance of the evidence that the applicant is at the very top of his or her field of endeavour.
