The U.S. State Department has released the December 2024 Visa Bulletin, outlining important updates on the Final Action Dates and Dates for Filing Applications for employment-based immigrant visas.
For this month, there are few changes, with visa availability for various categories remaining largely stable. Notably, the EB-1 category for India is set at February 1, 2022, and for China, it remains at November 8, 2022. Similarly, the EB-2 category for China holds steady at March 22, 2020, while India remains at July 15, 2012.
For foreign workers planning to file their applications, the Dates for Filing remain earlier than the Final Action Dates, offering an opportunity for early submission. The U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) continues to accept applications based on these filing dates, ensuring clarity for applicants in navigating the process.
These updates are crucial for foreign workers, as they determine when applicants can expect to file their applications or receive approvals, underlining the importance of staying informed on these dates.
