Eb4 March visa bulletin retrogression
I just checked the visa bulletin for March 2023 and it looks like the eb4 category got retrogressed. I submitted my i-485 when my priority date is current. I got my EAD and AP too. What happens to my i-485 now?

They'll process your case when the new retrogressed date matches your priority date.

@Backlogged Immigrant Oh okay. I have always seen eb4 as current. This is the first time seeing it retrogressed, that too by more than 1 year.

it was always current! does someone know why it retrogressed?
S AFeb 17, 2023
I guess there are lots of people now in Eb4. I hope the dates move fast.
Anyone has any idea when eb4 will be back to normal again?

I wonder what happens to people who got their GC approved but their priority date is not current now after the retrogression

I don’t think there will be any problem if GC is approved before March 1st. The new bulletin isn’t effective until next month right?

Let's urge USCIS to resume releasing the "EB 485 pending report" (btw they released for 10 years but stopped in 2018), which can tell us the number of people waiting in line before our PD and estimate the wait time. I filed FOIA request and commented on the USCIS data page (https://www.uscis.gov/tools/reports-and-studies/immigration-and-citizenship-data) many times to ask for this. The more people ask for this, the more likely USCIS will take this seriously and release it. (See more details here: https://uscis.gov/archive/questions-and-answers-pending-employment-based-form-i-485-inventory)
