The U.S. Department of State has released the November 2025 Visa Bulletin, providing updated information on immigrant visa availability for family-sponsored and employment-based categories. Overall movement remains limited.
- Family-Sponsored Categories: Minor advancements in Final Action Dates for certain categories.
- Employment-Based Categories: Dates for Filing remain unchanged; USCIS continues to accept adjustment of status applications based on these dates.
đź“… Understanding the Visa Bulletin
The Visa Bulletin includes two primary charts:
- Final Action Dates: Indicates when a visa number is available for an applicant.
- Dates for Filing Applications: Specifies when applicants can submit their adjustment of status applications to USCIS.
For November 2025, USCIS has confirmed that applicants may use the Dates for Filing chart for employment-based categories.
