Visa Bulletin

The monthly Visa Bulletin is issued by the Department of State and reports on the availability of immigrant visas. It establishes the approximate waiting times to obtain an immigrant visa (Green Card), based on a petition that has been approved by the USCIS (I-130, I-140, I-360, etc.).


USCIS Processing Times

USCIS publishes the average Processing Times for each of its Service Centers. The Processing Times published by USCIS are an estimate of how long it will take for each type of petition or application to adjudicate at each of the Service Centers.
