USCIS has announced that the application dates for the EB-2 visa category for India will move forward by 11 months in the March 2026 visa bulletin. This advancement comes as immigration attorneys express cautious optimism, recalling previous fluctuations in visa dates.
Key Details:
- New Date: EB-2 category for India now includes applicants with priority dates before December 2014.
- Previous Changes: In April 2022, dates advanced by 12 months, but were followed by a retrogression of 32 months in October 2022.
- Reason for Change: The forward movement is attributed to a visa pause affecting 75 countries.
- Advice for Applicants: Those with priority dates before November 2014 are urged to act quickly due to potential risks of further retrogression in the coming months.
This update provides a glimmer of hope for many applicants who have faced long backlogs in the EB-2 category. Need help with your immigration case? Visit QuickFiling.us for professional immigration services.
