Visa Bulletin Updates for August 2020: Impact on International Nurses
Veronica Sanchez, our Immigration Manager can confirm that the Visa Bulletin for August 2020 has been released, 'our Global Mobility Team is happy to confirm the relevant dates below. The EB-3 for the Philippines has moved forward to 01 APR 19. The EB-3 for India has moved forward to 01 OCT 09, and for Other Nationalities, it has moved forward to 01 APR 19. The movement this month is awesome!'
The Visa Bulletin, effectively, has two different tables - Table A and Table B. Table A shows the Final Action dates. Applications filed within these dates may be approved for their Permanent Residency or Immigrant Visa appointment. Table B shows the dates for filing for a visa. This means that the US Department of State may work on an application within these dates, but a visa can't be approved until the date is current, per Table A.
