Petition to Make The January 2017 Visa Bulletin for All EB categories and All EB countries current.

November 20, 2016 – The Shah Peerally Law Group PC is calling on the present President, Obama, to actually do a final push for so many employees on employment-based categories (EB) waiting in the line for their greencards. The petition has already gathered more than 1500 signatures and is going strong. We need more people to support the initiative.

Make All EB categories in the January 2017 Visa Bulletin Current

In the light of so many possible negative changes on immigration, we urge President Obama, the Department of State and Department of Homeland Security to make the January 2017 Visa Bulletin current for India and China. If the government is willing to at least make Chart B on the Visa Bulletin current for January 2017 for Indians and Chinese, many will be able to benefit from an employment authorization document (EAD) and AC 21.

In 2007, the Bush Administration did make all the EB categories current, we hope the DOS and President Obama will consider this as a final way to actually help those who have been waiting for years on their priority dates.

We encourage more people to sign the petition and pass it to their elected representative as a final chance for many to actually continue with their lives in the United States.

Thank you.
