Frequently asked questions

What is the EB-2 India priority date right now?

As of the latest U.S. Visa Bulletin, the EB-2 Final Action Date for India is Unavailable. Final Action Dates determine when a green card can actually be issued.

Why is EB-2 India Unavailable?

"Unavailable" (U) means the EB-2 category has used up its green-card numbers for India this fiscal year: demand reached the annual per-country limit, so the State Department stops issuing Final Action dates until the new fiscal year begins on October 1. It usually reopens to a cutoff date in the October Visa Bulletin. You can still file under the Dates for Filing chart while Final Action is Unavailable.

Did the EB-2 India cutoff move this month?

The EB-2 India Final Action Date is currently Unavailable. Movement varies month to month with demand and per-country limits.

What is the difference between Final Action and Dates for Filing?

Final Action Dates govern when USCIS or the consulate can approve the green card. Dates for Filing govern when you may submit the application (Form I-485 / DS-260). Filing dates are usually ahead of Final Action dates.
