Another positive development is the significant advancement of EB-3 China for 2 years to January 1, 2014, which is once again ahead of EB-2 China. EB-2 applicants born in China may once again downgrade their petitions to EB-3 based on this development.
Many family visa categories also move forward nicely. For example, Family First advances 7 months for China, India and Other Countries.
