Did everyone see the March Visa Bulletin?  EB3 is not current for Final Action.

Yes it’s quite nerve wracking that its not staying as c...!

Would this mean that our process will be even more delayed though? Or is it okay since we are already in the middle of process?

Hi, I can not speak for you as I do not know if your priority date is before 01JAN2017 but I can certainly say that is has derailed us for the foreseeable future.  Based on the below cut and paste from the March Visa Bulletin I would say we are derailed to at least the next fiscal year (October 2020) unless some miracle happens.

 

D.  OVERSUBSCRIPTION OF THE WORLDWIDE, EL SALVADOR, GUATEMALA, HONDURAS, MEXICO, AND PHILIPPINES EMPLOYMENT-BASED THIRD AND THIRD OTHER WORKER PREFERENCE CATEGORIES

As readers were advised in item E of the February Visa Bulletin, there continues to be an extremely high rate of demand for Employment Third (E3) and Third Other Worker (EW) numbers, primarily for USCIS adjustment of status applicants. Therefore, pursuant to the Immigration and Nationality Act, it has been necessary to impose E3 and EW final action dates for the month of March.

The March final action date is 01JAN17 and is being imposed immediately for all future requests for numbers.  This action will allow the Department to hold worldwide number use within the maximum allowed under these FY 2020 annual limits.  No forward movement of this date is expected in the foreseeable future.
