November 2022 Visa Bulletin – A Warning for EB-2 All Other Countries
Time 1 Minute Read

The Visa Bulletin is released monthly by the Department of State and is used to determine when a sponsored foreign national can submit the final step of the green card process, or if already pending, when the final step can be adjudicated.

Below is a summary of the November Visa Bulletin, including Final Action Dates and changes from the previous month.  

China:   EB-1 remains current; EB-2 holds at June 8, 2019; EB-3 freezes at June 15, 2018; EB-3 other workers advances three months to December 1, 2012.

India:   EB-1 remains current; EB-2 holds at April 1, 2012; EB-3 freezes at April 1, 2012; and EB-3 other workers remains April 1, 2012.

All Other Countries:   EB-1, EB-2 and EB-3 remain current (except for EB-3 Other Workers which has a cutoff date of June 1, 2020).

NOTE 1:  The November Visa Bulletin warns of possible future retrogression in the EB-2 All Other Countries category due to increased demand for overall visa numbers.

NOTE 2: USCIS will accept I-485 applications in November based on the Department of State’s slightly more favorable Dates for Filing chart.
