March 2026 Visa Bulletin: EB Category Movement Analysis
The March 2026 Visa Bulletin has been released. Here's a quick breakdown of the key EB category movements and what they mean for applicants.
EB-2 India
The Final Action Date for EB-2 India moved to September 2013. Movement has been slow but steady over recent months. If your priority date is approaching this cutoff, use our Priority Date Predictor to estimate when your date may become current.
EB-3 India
EB-3 India continues its gradual advancement. The per-country cap remains the primary bottleneck. Check our wait time calculator for a personalized estimate based on your priority date.
EB-1 All Countries
EB-1 remains current for most countries, with India and China seeing some movement. This category typically moves faster due to lower demand.
China (Mainland)
EB-2 and EB-3 China both showed movement this month. Chinese applicants face a significant but shorter backlog compared to India.
