dyamn: If you have undergrad degree, yes, you may fall in EB3 catagory. But if you have undergrad with 5 years of progressive experice, you may fall in EB2 catagory of which the visa numbers are available for Worldwide Catagory - the only thing is your employer MUST proof the business necessity of which they apply your petition. Due to the retrogression, it will take few more years for your EB3 to get the work permit, since you can only apply I-140, but not I-485. I-485 can ONLY be applied when your EB3 catagory will be current or the cutoff date is your Priority Date. I would suggest you to start the processing as soon as possible. Sooner the better.
