Common questions

What does current mean for a priority date?

A priority date is current when the applicable Visa Bulletin cutoff date is later than your priority date, or when the category is marked Current. The active chart still depends on USCIS guidance for adjustment-of-status filings.

Should I use Chart A or Chart B?

Chart A controls final action and approval availability. Chart B can allow earlier filing, but only when USCIS says that chart may be used for the month and category.

Is this legal advice?

No. This is a source-backed calculator for navigation and planning. Filing decisions should be confirmed against official government pages and a qualified immigration lawyer when needed.
