DOS Releases August 2008 Visa Bulletin

Murali Bashyam

The U.S. Department of State released its August 2008 Visa Bulletin.  Although employment-based category three (EB3) remains ‘unavailable’, employment-based category two (EB2) made a considerable jump to June 2006 for citizens of India and China.  We think that EB3 will continue to be ‘unavailable’ until at least October, when the new USCIS fiscal year begins.
