Well, no, India and China have the longest lines for EB-2 only (India at 10 years, China at 5) -- of the categories with any waitlist, this is the second shortest (After F-2A) for the longest two waitlists. Other employment based categories, the longest lines are the Phillipines and India. For family-based, in every category, the longest waitlists are Mexico and the Phillipines (though the order between those two varies between different categories), and every country has a waitlist because total request exceed the total quota (on the employment based side, this is also true of the two components of EB-3, but none of the other categories). The single longest waitlist of any category (family or employment-based) is F-4 from the Phillipines, which is currently nearly 24 years.
