US Visa Bulletin November: Essential Dates Unveiled for Immigrant Visa Applicants by Hindustan Times
The U.S. Department of State has released the November Visa Bulletin, detailing important dates for immigrant visa applicants. This bulletin outlines key timelines for submitting documentation to the National Visa Center and focuses on key visa categories.
Understanding the November Visa Bulletin
For those applying for an immigrant visa, it is crucial to check the priority dates in the bulletin. If an applicant’s priority date precedes the application date listed, they are required to submit their documentation to the National Visa Center.
Final Action Dates
Applicants wishing to adjust their status with USCIS should refer to the “Final Action Dates.” These dates indicate when applications can be filed. If a category in the bulletin is marked as “current,” individuals can file their applications regardless of priority date.
Filing Dates and Priority
- When immigration visa numbers exceed known applicants, USCIS may allow candidates to use the “Dates for Filing Visa Applications” chart.
- Applicants with priority dates before the listed dates can submit their paperwork to the National Visa Center after receiving instructions.
- The “current” category permits applications to be filed without concern for priority dates.
Family-Sponsored and Employment-Based Visa Categories
The Visa Bulletin includes specific dates for family-sponsored and employment-based visas. For family-sponsored categories, oversubscribed classes have illustrated cut-off dates, whereas employment-based applications are categorized based on the different priority dates.
Data for November
The November bulletin contains particular information for DV-2026 applicants, who may apply for immigrant numbers within the DV category for specific regions and nations. Visas are awarded based on the lottery rank numbers and the cut-off points specified.
