For Latest Visas Bulletin
Immigrant visas are numerically limited by category and by country
of chargeability (which is, in most cases one's country of birth).
What follows is the visa bulletin showing backlogs in each
immigrant visa category for the month of January 2001.
Persons born in countries other than India, Mexico and
the Philippines should look in the "Worldwide" current on the left
side of the page to determine their "priority date". A priority
date is established by the submission of a relative visa petition
in the family categories, and by either the submission of an
application for alien labor certification or by the submission of
an employment-based visa petition in the employment categories.
The word "Current" indicates that no backlog presently exists in a
particular category.

State Department Visa Bulletin.
