EB-4 Philippines priority date

Frequently asked questions

What is the current EB-4 Philippines priority date?

In the November 2026 Visa Bulletin, the EB-4 Philippines final action date is Dec 15, 2022 and the date for filing is Jan 1, 2025.

How fast is EB-4 Philippines moving?

Over the last 12 months the final action date moved forward 29.5 months. Average forward movement: 29.5 months/year (last year), 1.5 months/year (5 years), 1.5 months/year (10 years). One month of calendar time therefore moved the cutoff by about 0.1 months over the last five years.

When will a EB-4 Philippines priority date in Dec 2023 become current?

It is one year behind the current cutoff. If the final action date keeps moving at its five-year average pace of 1.5 months/year, that takes about 8.1 years. This is a projection from past movement, not a forecast by the State Department; demand, visa numbers and policy changes can make it much faster or slower.
