F2B Mexico priority date

F2B is for unmarried sons and daughters (21+) of green card holders. Applicants born in Mexico have their own cutoff because demand from Mexico exceeds the per-country limit.

The F2B Mexico final action date is May 15, 2010 in the November 2026 Visa Bulletin (date for filing: Mar 22, 2011). It did not move since October 2026. Applicants reaching the cutoff now filed about 16.5 years ago.

Frequently asked questions

What is the current F2B Mexico priority date?

In the November 2026 Visa Bulletin, the F2B Mexico final action date is May 15, 2010 and the date for filing is Mar 22, 2011. For most other countries it is Aug 22, 2020.

How fast is F2B Mexico moving?

Over the last 12 months the final action date moved forward 29 months. Average forward movement: 29 months/year (last year), 24.4 months/year (5 years), 17.5 months/year (10 years). One month of calendar time therefore moved the cutoff by about 2 months over the last five years.

When will a F2B Mexico priority date in May 2011 become current?

It is one year behind the current cutoff. If the final action date keeps moving at its five-year average pace of 24.4 months/year, that takes about 0.5 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.
