I dont know if your lawyers are giving you updates but basically if you are still waiting for residency start getting your alternatives together because we have just been screwed.
"“Immigrants in the green card backlog would lose their place in line and would need to apply under the new point-based system,” according to an analysis from Berry Appleman & Leiden. “The White House has said people who are currently waiting for green cards will receive additional points, but no specifics have been released.” This was confirmed by Donald Trump’s May 16, 2019, speech, in which he stated that all current family and employment-based preference categories would be eliminated and replaced by new “Build America” visas awarded by points."
"For individuals and families, particularly those among the approximately 4 million people waiting in green card backlogs, the administration’s proposal raises other concerns. More than 3.6 million people are waiting in family-based immigration preference backlogs as of November 1, 2018, according to the U.S. Department of State. Approximately 2.2 million are in the category for siblings of U.S. citizens, about 950,000 are the adult children of U.S. citizens and about 470,000 are spouses and minor or adult unmarried children of lawful permanent residents. The applications of these individuals and families would be eliminated. Mexico, the Philippines, India, Vietnam and China are the leading countries of origin for people in the family backlogs."
Just like I had to tell people on this board that infopasses were obsolete now I share this bad news with you too. We've been screwed and our lawyers arent saying anything about it!!
