The August 2025 visa bulletin offers hope for Indian and Chinese investors as the unreserved EB-5 category Final Action Date will advance by more than six months for India and two years for China. For Indian EB-3 (skilled workers and professionals), the Final Action Date has moved up by one month.

The Final Action Date for EB-1 has not changed for India and remains at February 15, 2022.The Final Action Date for EB-2 has not changed either and remains at January 1, 2013The Final Action Date for EB-3 has advanced by one month from April 22, 2013 to May 22, 2013.EB-5 unreserved category moved forward by six months to November 15, 2019. “Due to increased number use, it has become necessary to retrogress the EB-2 final action date for Rest of World countries. The issuance total in this category is rapidly approaching the annual limit for FY-2025, necessitating this slowdown of issuance rates. It is likely the annual limit will be reached sometime in August, if not sooner. Note that if at any time the EB-2 annual limit were reached, it would be necessary to immediately make the preference category “unavailable”, and no further requests for numbers would be honored. This situation will be continually monitored, and any necessary adjustments will be made accordingly,” the State Department said, issuing a retrogression warning for the EB-2 and EB-3 categories.
