In the November visa bulletin, the Department of State (DoS) has maintained the filing and final action dates for EB-5 investors in the Unreserved category for foreign nationals from India and Mainland China.
For Indian investors, the final action date remains January 1, 2022, and the filing date is April 1, 2022. Meanwhile, for Chinese EB-5 investors, the final action date continues to be July 15, 2016. Their filing date stands at October 1, 2016.
In addition, the dates for EB-5 investors from China and India remain current for the set-aside categories (rural, high-unemployment areas, and infrastructure). Both dates are also current for applicants from everywhere else in the world.
Current dates mean there are no backlogs associated with their nationalities and categories, providing a smoother process for their applications.
The Visa Bulletin provides essential information about immigrant visa availability, including filing and final action dates. For EB-5 investor visas, Chart B shows the filing date for submitting forms to the U.S. immigration agency, while Chart A indicates the final action date for visa issuance. These dates are crucial for the processing of immigrant visas and the adjustment of status.
