Then how come Philippines is not like I and C to have a line? How they are
in ROW? | b***k

Here are some interesting points after reading this whole report:
P.12
The implications of this difference—whether the LPR is “arriving” or “
adjusting”—are
significant. Specifically, the Department of State’s National Visa Center
caseload of approved
pending petitions may understate the actual number of approved cases if
USCIS does not forward
“adjusting” LPR petitions to the National Visa Center in advance of
reaching the visa priority
date. As previously mentioned, the visa retrogression resulted from problems
in forwarding
approved petitions to the National Visa Center in a timely manner.
Reportedly, USCIS now
forwards all approved petitions to the National Visa Center, with the
notable exception of those
who would clearly be adjusting status within the United States. It remains
unclear exactly how
this policy actually operates in practice.
...
P.17: It is also evident that policy options aimed at advancing approved
cases from India
and China would also bear on approved cases pending from the Philippines.
...
P.19: Finally, if the per-country ceilings were eliminated for employment-
based LPRs without any
other revisions to permanent legal immigration, it would likely have “
ripple” effects on familybased immigration as well as other potential
employment-based LPRs.
...
P.20: most of the approved employment-based visas are 3rd preference
professional and skilled workers, and as shown in Figure A-2, the
Philippines leads with 45% of
the 102,395 visas pending. India is the source country for 20% of the
approved 3rd preference Numerical Limits on Employment-Based Immigration
Congressional Research Service professional and skilled worker visas pending
. The Peoples’ Republic of China, South Korea, and Mexico contribute 7%, 3%
, and 2% respectively to the approved pending visas for professional
and skilled workers.
...
P.26 possible options: Reallocate the Diversity Visas
Some have observed that the 50,000 diversity visas would be better used for
high-skilled
immigrants. For example, H.R. 43 would eliminate the diversity visa lottery
and reallocate its
55,000 visas to foreign nationals who graduated from U.S. universities with
degrees in the
sciences or medicine and who have job offers.
visas.
