The Department of State has released the Visa Bulletin for the month of October 2022. India and China will both advance, to July 1st, 2012 and July 15th, 2018 respectively. All other countries will remain current. USCIS confirmed that it would use the Dates for Filing chart to determine employment-based filing eligibility in October. The Final Action Dates for filing chart will not apply. It is a common practice for USCIS to accept employment-based adjustment of status applications based on the typically more generous chart at the beginning of the fiscal year, when the annual supply of available immigrant numbers is at its peak.
