What are priority dates?
.
Priority dates are used to determine an immigrant’s place in the visa queue. When the priority date becomes available or is “current,” immigrants may be able to apply for adjustment of status and obtain lawful permanent resident status, if otherwise eligible.
.
An immigrant visa is available to an immigrant when their priority date is earlier than the cut-off date shown for their preference category and country of changeability in the applicable chart in the Visa Bulletin.

Visa retrogression occurs when more people apply for a visa in a particular category than there are visas available for that month. In these circumstances, the cut-off date on the Visa Bulletin moves backward to an earlier date.

I am happy to announce that I had a recent approval of an immigrant visa petition for a Christian minister !
.
Ministers (and other religious workers) may be eligible to apply for a fourth preference employment-based (EB-4) green card so long as their immigrant visa petition (Form I-360) has been approved, a visa number is immediately available, and they are otherwise admissible to the United States.

R1 Religious Worker Visa   Overview: What is a R1 Religious Worker Visa? R-1 Religious Worker Visas are nonimmigrant visas which permit foreign nationals to come to the United States temporarily to be employed at least part-time (average of at least twenty hours per week) by a bona fide nonprofit religious organization in the United […]

This weekend, Lally Immigration Services, LLC filed a Religious Worker Petition on behalf of a Minister.

Ministers and non-ministers in religious vocations and occupations may immigrate to or adjust status (i.e., apply for a “green card”) in the U.S. for the purpose of performing religious work in a full-time compensated position.

Generally, a U.S. employer files a Religious Worker petition on behalf of an individual who seeks to enter the United States to be employed full-time by a bona fide nonprofit religious organization in the United States (or a bona fide organization that is affiliated with the religious denomination in the United States) to work:

1. Solely as a minister of that religious denomination;
2. In a religious vocation either in a professional or non-professional capacity; or
3. In a religious occupation either in a professional or non-professional capacity.

A Religious Worker may, however, file this petition on his or her own behalf.

To qualify, the Religious Worker must have been:

1. A member of a religious denomination that has a bona fide nonprofit religious organization in the United States for at least the two years immediately preceding the filing of the petition; and
2. Working continuously, after turning 14 years of age, in one of the positions described above, either abroad or in the United States, for at least two years immediately preceding the filing of the petition.
