my case is still sat at the london embassy and has been since july 2007 my pd is may 2005 lets hope we dont have to wait 2 yrs to get our medical and interview, think my family and i would have been driven to insanity by then

ours is still better than others at least we are moving. although slow but it is moving.

employment preferences - worldwide and philippines:

first: will remain "current"

second: will remain "current"

third: slow forward movement should be possible while demand patterns are established.

third "other workers" (all countries): little if any forward movement is expected at this time. should the current demand pattern continue, it may be necessary to retrogress the cut-off date at some point later in the fiscal year.

Looks like nobody is going ANYWHERE in 2007, nor in 2008 for that matter. The visa availability will be very slow, then suddenly becomes current near the end of the fiscal year. The H1b and those doing AOS in the USA will get most (if not all) of the visas, and after the mad scramble and endless speculations, it's back to retrogression heaven for nurses.

We have no choice but to be patient and put up with all the delays but i do have faith and truly beleive we will get there well before 2 yrs, lets hope i am not living in a fantasy world.
