USCIS released the April 2026 Visa Bulletin, revealing significant updates for Indian-born tech professionals. The bulletin shows changes in the Final Action Dates and Dates for Filing for the EB-1 and EB-2 categories, effective immediately.
Key Details:
- EB-1 India Final Action Date: April 1, 2023 (moved forward by 1 month from March)
- EB-1 India Dates for Filing: December 1, 2023
- EB-2 India Final Action Date: July 15, 2014 (advanced by over 300 days)
- EB-2 Rest of World: CURRENT
For those in the EB-1 category, if your priority date is before April 1, 2023, your green card can be issued now. If your priority date is between April 2023 and December 2023, you can file your I-485 Adjustment of Status as USCIS is honoring the Dates for Filing chart.
These changes will provide new opportunities for Indian tech professionals seeking to adjust their immigration status and obtain green cards.
