Moved to the International forum as nothing to do with NCLEX

Retrogression is going to last years as demand far outweighs the amount of visas allocated. There are already numerous threads on retrogression so closing this

Also a lot will depend on your PD which you can only get once you find a employer (which is getting harder and harder due to the long delays) and when the I140 is filed (that will be your PD )

As well as country of birth. For some countries, such as India and China, things are retrogressed back even further.

Please be aware that there are now many more applicants from quite a few countries so it is going to be years; as well as the fact that not all that manage to get an employer to petition them are ever going to get to the US in a realistic timeframe.
