What happens if my EB-2 priority date retrogresses?

You must wait until your priority date becomes current again

You can stay in the U.S. if you have a valid non-immigrant status (like H-1B)

No new biometrics or re-filing needed when the date is current again

If your EB-2 priority date retrogresses, you must wait until it becomes current again before your green card can be approved, even if you’ve submitted all documents.
