Annual Limit Reached in the EB-1 Category

The State Department, working closely with USCIS, has announced the issuance of all available visas in the Employment-Based First Preference (EB-1) category for fiscal year (FY) 2024.

Since all available EB-1 visas for FY 2024 have been used, embassies and consulates may not issue visas in these categories for the remainder of the fiscal year. The annual limits will reset with the start of the new fiscal year (FY 2025) on October 1, 2024. At that point, embassies and consulates may resume issuing immigrant visas in these categories to qualified applicants.

For more information, see Annual Limit Reached in the EB-1 Category.
