Is it worth waiting for EB2 to become current or pay $10k trying for EB1A? My priority date is September 2016. I’ve been hearing about additional green cards being given to eb category.. would that help EB2? (One of my colleagues got through EB1A a few years ago and our profiles are same so I could give it a shot but it’s a bit expensive so if there’s a good chance for eb2 to become current then I’d rather wait for it )
