U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) has confirmed that in January 2016 it will only accept employment-based adjustment of status applications according to the Application Final Action Dates chart – not the Dates for Filing chart – published in the State Department’s January Visa Bulletin earlier this week.
Employment-based immigrants must follow the Application Final Action Dates chart below to determine if they are eligible to file their adjustment of status petitions. Only applicants with priority dates earlier than the date listed in the chart will be eligible to file their adjustment of status applications in January. Family-based immigrants may, on the other hand, use the Dates for Filing chart, applicable to family-sponsored applicants, contained in the January Visa Bulletin.
