The priority date for EB-3 is Dec. 2013. Does it mean that anyone who came after Dec. 2013 mostly likely will still be on h1b as I-140 has not been filed? Can anyone help me understand it? It seems that people have been on h1bs for the past 12 or so years. Is my understanding correct?

Yes, obviously. Even then "coming in" still doesn't equate filing a green card. So, anyone who came in after that date is still on H1b and would continue to be so until their priority date becomes current.

Came in 2011, priority date is Dec 2014, able to secure EAD on EB3 when adjustment of status dates were current during Covid. Waiting for final action date to be current. So 12 years in GC queue. 15 years in the country.

Question about inclusion….

While I see the point of putting them together for convenience, I don’t agree with this at all! To me this is like singling them out by putting them all together instead of INCLUDED amongst peers. What do y’all think?
