By: Nicole C. Dillard, Esq. 最新 February 2006 Visa Bulletin已被公布，而從其公布的結果顯示幾項employment based visa categories都有重要變動，詳細請看以下的February 2006 Visa Bulletin。 The February 2006 Visa Bulletin has now been published. The February 2006 bulletin illustrates significant movement in several of the employment based visa categories. Specifically, there has been a change of one year in the priority date for Employment based first preference category for Chinese nationals—the priority date has moved from January 1, 2002 to January 1, 2003 . Indian nationals in the Employment based first preference category have moved from July 1, 2003 to February 1, 2004 . In the Employment based second preference category, there was a change of approximately 10 months. In the second preference category, the priority date for Chinese nationals moved from June 1 2001 to April 1, 2002 . For Indian nationals, the preference category has moved from January 1, 2001 to August 1, 2001 . Unfortunately, time is still moving slowly for beneficiaries of the Employment based third preference category. There range of movement is only from a few weeks, for those beneficiaries from countries other than China , India , Mexico and the Philippines , to a few months for Indian nationals. Please review the chart below to see what priority dates are current. Please remember that if you are a beneficiary of a Labor Certification, your priority date is determined by the date that your employer filed the Labor Certification on your behalf (or on behalf of the original employee, in cases of substitution). If you skipped over the Labor Certification stage, then your priority date is the date that your I-140 was filed. http://www.fan-law.com/ ______________________________________________________________________________ 本文由範毅禹律師事務所提供 本律師事務所精辦各類勞工應聘及專業移民申請 (包括H-1，L-1，EB-1，EB-2，NIW，勞工卡，綠卡等申請)。所有申請由多位美籍律師及擁有15年經驗的範毅禹律師親自處理，我所並特設中英移民網站。內有最新移民新聞資訊及由律師主持的移民問答集，歡迎讀者流覽查詢。 www.Fan-Law.com CALIFORNIA : Fan, Fitzpatrick & Thompson, LLP. 370 E.
