US November Visa Bulletin: Millions of foreign workers, including Indian workers, are working in the United States. Foreign workers working here are granted green cards to allow them to live and work permanently . Each worker in the United States is divided into several categories, depending on which their waiting time for a green card varies. The State Department issues a monthly visa bulletin, detailing the waiting time for each category of worker. The US State Department has released the visa bulletin
The US Department of State has released the Visa Bulletin for November 2025. The waiting time for the EB-2 category of employment-based green cards has been extended by three months. There has been no change in the waiting time for workers in the EB-1 and EB-3 categories. If you are also interested in obtaining a green card, you should keep an eye on the Visa Bulletin, which details all changes.
How to understand the Visa Bulletin?
To understand the Visa Bulletin, you need to know about its two main parts. The first is the Final Action Date , which will inform you about your green card status based on your priority date (the date you first applied). For example, if your priority date is before the date listed in the Visa Bulletin chart, your green card is ready to be received. The priority date is the final step in obtaining a green card.
Similarly, the second section, Dates for Filing, indicates when a worker can submit their green card application. This allows you to start your paperwork early, even if you don’t expect to receive a green card immediately. This is for those who have just been added to the green card waiting list.
When will I get the green card?
