July 2021 Visa Bulletin<\/strong> summarizes the availability of immigrant numbers during July for: “Final Action Dates<\/strong>” and “Dates for Filing Applications,” indicating when immigrant visa<\/strong> candidates should be told to collect and submit required documentation to the National Visa Center.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today, the U.S. Department of State<\/strong> (DOS) released the July Visa Bulletin 2021. All cutoff dates listed refer to the dates in the final action chart<\/strong> (i.e., Chart A) except if in any case indicated. The U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS<\/strong>) has not yet shown whether stakeholders will be able to utilize the dates for filings chart <\/strong>(i.e., Chart B) in July for purposes of applying for adjustment of status.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Impact of President Biden\u2019s decision to rescind the immigrant visa ban<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In spite of President Biden’s 24th February 2021 <\/strong>order to rescind the Trump-era proclamation that suspended certain immigrant entries<\/strong>, visa application backlogs combined with decreased consular operations because of COVID-19<\/strong> public health measures will continue to limit the issuance of immigrant visas by U.S. consulates abroad. Immigrant visa<\/strong> (IV) candidates who are no longer subject to the immigrant ban may see their cases push ahead, but should expect delays as consulates continue to phase in routine services and work through backlogs<\/strong>. Those previously refused under the IV ban should await further instruction from the U.S. consulate that handled their application.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Expiring EB-5 Regional Center program<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The EB-5 Regional Center program is scheduled to expire on 30th June 2021<\/strong> and is therefore listed as \u201cunavailable\u201d in the July 2021 Visa Bulletin. Absent legislative action in Congress to reauthorize the program, immigrant visa<\/strong> issuance and adjustment of status adjudications under this category will cease after the close of business on June 30<\/strong>. Bills to reauthorize the Regional Center program are at present pending in Congress<\/strong>, however, the possibilities for reauthorization are not yet clear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
