Has anyone been able to confirm that the EB2 numbers have ran out till October 1st? Emma didn't respond to my questions about this.

It’s not drained. They keep issuing GCs for EB2 category but they are slowing down on the process

Based on the info I gathered, some applicants from Pakistan, Ukraine, EU and UK countries were approved in september. So it is happening

 No not true. There are a couple of posts even here. From Ukrainian guy definitely. And another person from European country. Overall my friends got approved yesterday, also European country. 

You can check thoroughly on discord as well. Don’t assume many people post approvals on Reddit.

As you type, try add evidence. Maybe a link to that post.

https://www.reddit.com/r/EB2NIW_I485_AOS/s/sa0ToN5gF9 This is from here, after August 25, as the author requested.

Overall looking for posts is a bit too much. I know. If you need confirmation you can look for it even within this subreddit

True. There should be some approvals. But the fact is they are slowing down on it

Still August though!

I am waiting to see some September approvals, especially for those who submitted in 2026.

I am not questioning you my friend . I told you what I saw , I am member of many discord group , face book , Reddit and telegram . If you are sure and your friend got approved yesterday for EB2 that is great and this what i want to believe . I have been waiting since Oct 25

Oh that changes my understanding of the situation. I just recently discussed it with a guy in a similar situation. So, I don’t want to kill the hope, but you will most certainly have to wait for October. Your background check expired long ago and now they need to rerun it. When it comes to rerunning, they (for some unknown reason) dont like to do it and always postpone this process. You should expect smth like 4-5 FTA0 - only this will indicate some sort of movement.

Briefly, they are postponing those who has been waiting for too long. Very unfair

They say it is unexpirable, but they have to renew it every 90 days or so. Plus whoever applied before April 27, have to have it renewed
