USCIS has announced a significant update in the April 2026 Visa Bulletin, stating that the EB-3 visa category is now current, alongside the EB-2 category. This change opens a crucial window for eligible applicants to proceed with their Adjustment of Status (I-485) applications if they have an approved I-140 under EB-2 or EB-3 and are physically present in the U.S.
Key Details:
- EB-3 category status: Current as of April 2026.
- Eligibility: Applicants must have an approved I-140 under EB-2 or EB-3.
- Benefits: Eligible applicants can apply for Work Authorization (EAD) and Travel Authorization (Advance Parole).
- Important note: The current status may retrogress at any time due to annual demand, potentially closing this opportunity.
