The quota for professional immigration in the United States is usually 140,000 yuan per year, but the US immigration law stipulates that the green card quota for relative immigration that was not used up in the previous fiscal year can be transferred to professional immigration in the next year.
2022, due to a large amount of residual quotas in the previous fiscal year, the quota for professional immigrants in the United States reached 280,000, a record high, more than twice the normal year.
The US Immigration Bureau even officially promoted the project, claiming that it will "make full use of all resources" and will not waste a green card quota for professional immigrants!
2023 fiscal year, how many of the remaining quotas will be allocated to professional immigrants?
Based on past experience, as well as the number of green cards available in each immigration category, the I-485 applications to be processed, and the number of immigration visas to be processed abroad, Immigration Bureau estimates the occupational immigration quota for the new fiscal year:
Fiscal Year 2023 green card quota for occupational immigration is 200,000 more than the 140,000 quota for normal years
As an immigration program for the United States to attract high-quality talents from all over the world, professional immigrants enjoy the unique advantages of high quotas, high speed and many other difficult-to-achieve immigration programs. Judging from the importance it pays attention to every year, we can clearly feel its "noble status".
As the quota increases in the past two years, the chances of applicants to successfully "implement" have also soared. However, occupational immigration is also divided into many types.
Internal allocation mechanism for green cards for professional immigration: unused quotas for
EB-4 and EB-5 are allocated to EB-1; unused quotas for
EB-1 will be automatically allocated to EB-2; unused quotas for
EB-2EB-2 are automatically allocated to EB-3...
In terms of priority, EB-1 is undoubtedly the best quota among all professional immigration application categories, currently there is no schedule, and is the fastest application category to obtain a green card. The EB-1A Outstanding Talent Immigration Program under is the "most priority" among the priorities!
In addition, this year's EB-5 must be emphasized. EB-5 no longer needs to be scheduled!
According to the new law, investors who have already been in the United States in the EB-5 New Deal can submit an I-485 identity conversion application and a combination card (can be passed within a few months), which means that the applicant's work identity and immigration issues have been resolved!
