The Department of State has issued the July 2022 Visa Bulletin. USCIS has confirmed that all employment-based adjustment of status applicants must use the “Final Action Dates” chart. The effective cut-off for adjustment of status filings under EB-3 India remains at January 15, 2012, while the filing cutoff for EB-2 India has changed to December 1, 2014. The Dates for Filing chart should be used for all family-sponsored I-485 applications. USCIS has indicated that a large number of EB-1 and EB-2 visas are available this fiscal year. The agency encourages interfiling submissions from applicants who currently have 1) a current priority date under the Final Action Date chart, 2) a pending EB-3 I-485 application and 3) an approved EB-1 or EB-2 immigrant petition (I-140).
