What could be the reason for a retrogression in “EB” category?

Are you wondering why EB visa retrogression occurs and how it affects your immigration process? In this video, we break down the key reasons behind employment-based (EB) green card retrogression, what it means for applicants, and how to navigate the delays.

Retrogression happens when the demand for green cards in a particular EB category (such as EB-1, EB-2, or EB-3) exceeds the available visa supply for that fiscal year. This results in priority date cutoffs moving backward, delaying the issuance of green cards. Some common reasons for EB retrogression include:

✅ High Demand: More applicants in a specific category or country than available visas.
✅ Annual Limits: The U.S. government caps the number of visas issued per category and per country.
✅ Country-Specific Backlogs: Certain countries (like India and China) often face retrogression due to high demand.
✅ Processing Delays: U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) and the Department of State (DOS) may face backlogs in processing applications.
✅ Legislative or Policy Changes: Immigration policy shifts or new laws can impact visa availability.
