USCIS has announced that the annual limit for EB-2 immigrant visas for India has been reached for fiscal year 2026, effective immediately. This means that no EB-2 India immigrant visas or adjustment of status (AOS) approvals will be issued until October 1, 2026.
Key Details:
- Visa limit reached: EB-2 India immigrant visa limit for FY 2026.
- No approvals: No EB-2 India immigrant visas or AOS approvals until October 1, 2026.
- Adjustment filings: USCIS may still accept EB-2 India adjustment filings that are current under the June Visa Bulletin.
- AOS interviews: Applicants with scheduled AOS interviews should attend unless rescheduled by USCIS.
This development significantly affects Indian nationals seeking permanent residency in the U.S. as they will face delays until the next fiscal year.
