The February 2026 Visa Bulletin is officially out, and while many green card hopefuls were expecting big progress, this month’s movement is modest — with some categories advancing and most staying the same. This matters if you’re waiting to file your adjustment of status (I-485) or hoping your priority date gets current soon. In this video, we break down: ✔ Which employment-based (EB) categories moved forward ✔ What happened in family-based (FB) visa dates ✔ Who benefits most in February — and who still faces long waits ✔ How USCIS uses the Dates for Filing chart to help you file earlier ✔ What you should do before the next Visa Bulletin drops 📊 FEBRUARY 2026 VISA BULLETIN — KEY TAKEAWAYS 🔹 Employment-Based (EB) Movement ✔ EB-3 Worldwide Advanced — The Final Action Date for EB-3 (for Rest of World, Mexico & Philippines) moved forward by weeks, giving applicants with older priority dates a better shot at approval soon. ✔ EB-1 and EB-2 Mostly Stalled — Priority dates for EB-1 and EB-2 remained unchanged from January for most countries, meaning the big backlogs continue, especially for India and China. ✔ USCIS Honors the Dates for Filing — Importantly, USCIS continues to use the Dates for Filing chart, which is often ahead of Final Action Dates. That means more applicants may be eligible to file I-485, even if their green card cannot yet be approved. ➡️ What this means: EB-3 applicants from many countries (especially “All Other Chargeability Areas,” Mexico, and the Philippines) are the big winners this month — they can file earlier or have a greater chance of final action soon. EB-1 and EB-2 applicants will likely stay where they are for now. 🔹 Family-Based (FB) Movement ✔ Some Mexico & F2A Movement — A few family-based categories saw priority dates advance: • F-1 & F-2B Mexico categories moved significantly. • F2A (spouses/children of permanent residents) moved ahead slightly. ❌ Other Family Categories Static — Many family categories for China, India, Philippines, and “All Other” remained unchanged, meaning long waits persist for those applicants. ➡️ Who this helps: Family petitioners with Mexico cases in F-1 and F-2B categories — they’re seeing the most forward movement this month. 🧠 WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW 📌 Dates for Filing Chart Is Key Even if Final Action Dates aren’t moving much, if your priority date is before the Dates for Filing cutoff, you can file your I-485 adjustment now — getting EAD (work permit) and Advance Parole benefits sooner. 📌 Backlogs Still Huge for India & China Long wait times remain in EB-2 and EB-3 for India and China — despite some stabilization after earlier advances. 📌 Rest of World Gets Slight Relief Applicants from countries outside India and China may see more movement and faster filing opportunities, especially in EB-3. #VisaBulletin #GreenCard #USCIS #ImmigrationUpdate #FamilyBased #EmploymentBased #EB3 #I485 #PriorityDate #Immigration2026 #VisaNews DISCLAIMER: This video is for informational and educational purposes only and does not constitute legal advice.
