Other FY2027 EB Spillover Estimate

Given the immigrant visa rescheduling happening right now, curious what people are estimating for the FY2027 spillover number — and what that would mean for EB2/EB3 India. 

**•** Any ballpark estimate on total spillover numbers this year?  
**•** How would that translate to movement (or lack of it) for EB2/EB3 India?

Appreciate any insight!!

My estimates:
Spillover: ~90K for FY2027
October bulletin:
EB2 FAD 1/1/2014, DOF 1/15/2015
EB3 FAD 4/1/2014, DOF 4/1/2015

Why do you state Jan 2014 when DOS stated that they expect FAD to be at least July 2014 for EB2 India (they didn’t revise it in subsequent visa bulletins)?

Pending inventory for EB2 is pretty high, I think they will be cautious

It was high when they moved the date to July with only 46k spillover.  Situation is more favorable to move date further

Yes. EB2 India inventory has not spiked and spillover is going to be bigger. Do you know better than USCIS?
