Hello,

It may be a silly question, but I get really confused of the visa bulletin. Hoping that someone can help me with my question.

For example, any posts here mention that F2A category takes 4-5 years. However, as I look at March 2012 visa bulletin, F2A petition with PD of JUL22 2009 is currently processed. Here comes my question. Shouldn't the wait time of F2A be 2.5 years in this case? Why do the other think 4-5 years?????

Thanks a million.

ditto, that was the waiting time years ago, now it's over 2 years. less time for spouses and unmarried children of a LPR. For the rest of the categories it's taking longer because the visa bulletin retrogressed last year.

You are reading it correctly. If you look only 1 year ago at the March 2011 visa bulletin, it was over 4 years.
