The path to obtaining a Green Card in the United States can be complex and multifaceted. One crucial factor in this process is the Visa Bulletin, a monthly publication by the Department of State that outlines the availability of immigrant visas for each employment-based preference category.
Your priority date is the date your Form I-140, Immigrant Petition for Alien Worker, was filed with U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS). This date essentially determines your place in line for a Green Card.
The Visa Bulletin sets the "cut-off" dates for each category. If your priority date is "current" in the Visa Bulletin, it means that visas are available for individuals with priority dates on or before that date.
The January 2025 Visa Bulletin has been released, showing modest advancements in some categories, including EB-2 and EB-3.
These advancements indicate potential progress in reducing visa backlogs, particularly for applicants in the EB-3 category.
