What do Table A and Table B mean in the U.S. Immigration Visa Bulletin?
The U.S. Department of State (DOS) has implemented significant reforms in the Immigration Visa Bulletin, setting a 'filing date' for the 2016 fiscal year starting in October. This allows the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) to accept certain family-sponsored and employment-based green card applications (I-485) in advance, permitting pre-approval and issuance of green cards when the immigration priority dates become valid. This is the origin of Table A and Table B in the immigration visa bulletin.
