Summary of pending cases with available priority dates:
• EB-2 Available Cases: Pending applications range from 13,000 to 36,000 for each month.
• EB-3 Available Cases: Pending applications range from 9,000 to 51,000 for each month.
Summary of pending cases with priority dates not available:
• EB-2 Awaiting Availability: Pending cases range from 935,000 to 1,376,000 for each month.
• EB-3 Awaiting Availability: Pending cases range from 505,000 to 563,000 for each month.
As you can see there is backlog in available cases which shows that your case may not get approved even if your priority date is available unless it remains current for sometime.
The pending cases for unavailable priority date cases show high demand, therefore unlikely that the priority dates will move forward rapidly
