What is the Visa Bulletin?\u00a0<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

The Visa Bulletin (BV)<\/strong> It is a guide that the U.S. Immigration and Citizenship Services (USCIS) and the U.S. Department of State (DOS) have to determine who may or may not receive an immigrant visa, depending on the date on which the person submitted their application. That date is called <\/span>Priority date<\/span><\/i>\u00a0and this determines the place of the beneficiary on the waiting list.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

The reason behind the Visa Bulletin<\/strong> The immigration law sets a limit on the number of people who can immigrate to the United States each year, depending on the category. When the number of applicants exceeds the available visas, a delay occurs. <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

Every month the Visa Bulletin<\/strong> Announces the priority or cut-off date, which means that for an immigrant to adjust status, in other words, obtain residency, the immigrant must have a priority date before the category closing date in the Bulletin.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

In a case of immigration based on family petition, the priority date<\/strong> This is the date the USCIS receives the request. In a case based on employment, the priority date is the date the Department of Labor (DOL) receives the request to certify that the worker is eligible for permanent residence. When the law does not require a work certification, it is the day the USCIS receives the request. <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

Generally the date of the Visa Bulletin<\/strong> It works forward, but if the State Department determines that visas for a certain category or country are being used faster than expected, the cut-off date can be delayed to halt the process.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>
