What this means for All Other Countries applicants
For April 2026, EB-5 Infrastructure is Current for All Other Countries. That means applicants in this category with any priority date may proceed — there is no wait based on numerical limits. USCIS will accept adjustment of status filings, and the Department of State will issue immigrant visas at consulates without delay caused by visa availability.
"All Other Countries" (worldwide) is the baseline chargeability. Most applicants born outside the five listed chargeability areas fall here. Movement is generally faster than India or China, though retrogression can still occur late in the fiscal year.
How to read this page
The Visa Bulletin publishes two charts each month. The Final Action Dates chart tells you when the U.S. government can actually issue a green card — your priority date must be earlier than the listed cutoff. The Dates for Filing chart is earlier and lets you file Form I-485 (adjustment of status) before your priority date is fully current, provided USCIS has chosen to accept filings against this chart for the month.
For April 2026, USCIS is accepting employment-based adjustment filings against the Dates for Filing chart. This can change month to month — always confirm against uscis.gov/visabulletininfo before filing.
Priority date basics
For EB-5 Infrastructure, your priority date is the date USCIS received your I-140 petition. This is the date you use to measure progress against the Visa Bulletin every month.
