EB2/EB3 wait period for Indians?

[viju93]

Hi,
I'm a doctor looking for some one to sponsor my H1 to Green card. I don't know if I will be in EB2 or EB3.

I'm from India. I wanted to know the wait period if I were to apply for green card (EB2/EB3) in early 2007.

When do we get the priority date is it after applying for LC or i140 and how long do we have to wait before filing for i485 considering my nationality.

Is there something like a backlog now for indians? or something called retrogression?

If anybody can give an input, I will be grateful.

Thank you./
Vijay

It will take many years to get green card based on EB2 or EB3.

Look at the visa bulletin to find out the wait times: http://www.immihelp.com/greencard/visa-bulletin.jsp

its not worth the wait. Rather, do an MD in some speciality and start your own practice in India. Medical outsourcing has just begun and is picking momentum.
