Annual Limit Reached for EB-2 Visas for Indian Nationals


The US State Department has announced that all EB-2 immigrant visas allocated to Indian nationals have been issued for the fiscal year FY 2026.

Employment-based immigrant visas are subject to an annual limit. Once the annual limit has been reached, no additional EB-2 visas may be issued until the next fiscal year. As such, US embassies and consulates will resume issuing EB-2 visas to qualified Indian national applicants on October 1, 2026 – the start of the new fiscal year.

If you have any questions regarding the announcement above, please contact us and we would be happy to speak with you.
