Priority Date
Tracker

Your priority date is your place in the queue. This shows what it means against the current cut-off — and explains honestly why nobody can tell you the month you will be called.

  • Your place in lineExplained plainly
  • Official figuresStraight from the bulletin
  • No predictionsBecause none are honest

Priority Date Tracker

Your priority date is your place in the queue. Enter it once and the tracker tells you how old it is, whether the current cut-off has reached it, and by how far either way — so checking the monthly bulletin takes a moment instead of an afternoon.

How it works

  1. 1Enter your priority date and country of chargeability.
  2. 2Enter the current cut-off from the official Visa Bulletin.
  3. 3See where you stand, and what the gap actually means.
  4. 4Keep it on your account so each month is one glance.

What you get back

  • How old your priority date is, in plain terms
  • Whether it is current, and by how much either way
  • What moves the queue — and what cannot
  • No predicted dates, because no honest source has one

Everything the tool is built on is explained in full on these pages, and they are open to everyone.

What actually moves the queue

Four things decide when your date becomes current. None of them is how much you pay anyone.

The annual limit

About 10,000 visas a year worldwide for the whole “other workers” subgroup. This is what creates the queue, and it is set by law rather than by caseload.

Per-country limits

No single country may take more than a set share of the annual total, which is why applicants born in high-demand countries wait longer than everyone else.

Demand ahead of you

Every approved petition with an earlier priority date is in front of yours. Demand is not published person by person, which is why nobody can name your date.

Retrogression

When demand outstrips supply mid-year, cut-off dates move backwards. A date that was current can stop being current — this is normal, not a mistake.

Nobody Can Promise You a Date

What we can do is make sure you understand the queue you are in, and that you never miss the month yours becomes current.
