To be qualified to file an employment-based adjustment application in <strong>November<\/strong>,employer-sponsored foreign nationals must have a <strong>priority date<\/strong> that is earlier than the date filed below for their preferred class and nation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is the second <strong>consecutive month<\/strong> in which USCIS has decided to honor the <strong>Dates for Filing chart<\/strong>, instead of the Final Action Date chart. In October, there was huge advancement on this chart, especially in the <strong>EB-2 and EB-3<\/strong> classifications for <strong>India and China<\/strong>, which permitted numerous candidates who were previously subject to lengthy backlogs to file an adjustment of status applications. The present declaration confirms that the agency will keep on tolerating these filings through at least the end of <strong>November<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3>Impact of Presidential Proclamation<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>As an update, President Trump&#8217;s<strong> April 22 <\/strong>proclamation temporarily suspending the entry of specific immigrants remains in place through <strong>31st December 2020. <\/strong>The announcement continues restricting the issuance of immigrant visas by U.S. consulates abroad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3>November 2020 Visa Bulletin Summary<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Check out the Final Action cut-off dates for November 2020<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4>Employment-Based, First Preference (EB1) Category<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>The <strong>EB1<\/strong> China and India categories both advancement on the FA chart, to a <strong>1st December 2018<\/strong> cutoff date. The category stays current for all different nations of chargeability. There is no change in the DF chart for this class from the <strong>October 2020 Visa Bulletin.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4>Employment-Based, Second Preference (EB2) Category<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>EB2 India advances to <strong>22nd September 2009<\/strong>, on the FA chart, while EB2 China moves to <strong>April 22, 2016.<\/strong> This class stays current for all different nations of chargeability. There is no movement in the DF chart for the EB2 category.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4>Employment-Based, Third Preference (EB3) Category<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>The cutoff date for EB3 India advances to <strong>1st March 2010,<\/strong> on the FA chart. For China, the cutoff date moves to <strong>October 1, 2017<\/strong>. This classification stays current for all different nations of chargeability. The dates in the DF chart for this category remain unchanged.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"has-text-align-right\">[<a href=\"https:\/\/www.h1btransfersusa.com\/blog\/homeland-security-proposes-new-requirements-for-immigration-sponsors\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><span class=\"has-inline-color has-vivid-red-color\">DHS Proposes New Requirements for Immigration Sponsors<\/span><\/a>]<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<h4>EB3 Other Workers<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Except for China, the cutoff dates for <strong>EB3 <\/strong>other workers are the same for every nation as its respective EB3 cutoff dates. For China, the cutoff date for EB3 other workers on the FA chart moves to 1st August 2008. The main change in the<strong> November 2020 Visa Bulletin<\/strong> in the DF chart is that EB3 different workers for China move to<strong> 1st May 2009.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4>Employment-Based, Fourth Preference (EB4) Category<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>The cutoff date for EB4 Mexico moves to <strong>15th October 2018<\/strong>, on the FA chart. The EB4 cutoff date for El Salvador, Guatemala, and Honduras advances to <strong>November 1, 2017. <\/strong>This class stays current for all different nations of chargeability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4>Employment-Based, Fifth Preference (EB5) Category<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>There is no movement in the <strong>EB5 category<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4>Conclusion<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>The USCIS is again allowing the utilization of the <strong>DF chart<\/strong> for purposes of applying for adjustment of status in November. If the <strong>DOS <\/strong>gives updated <strong>predictions <\/strong>this month, then the details will be posted as soon as possible.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Finally, the U.S. Department of State (DOS) has released the November 2020 Visa Bulletin.
