The State Department released the Visa Bulletin for September 2015. There was forward movement in most employment- and family-based visa categories, although the employment-based second preference categories for mainland China and India retrogressed to January 1, 2006, from December 15, 2013, and October 1, 2008, respectively. The Visa Bulletin also includes information on the worldwide numerical limits for FY2015.
From India or China with lots of education? Unfortunately, employment visas retrogressed.
