Solid line: EB-3 Final Action Date, China (mainland-born). Dashed: Dates for Filing (published since October 2015). Vertical axis is the cutoff date; when a category is "current" the line is drawn at the bulletin month itself. Red ticks mark months the category was "unavailable".

Every point comes from the archived Visa Bulletin for that month (U.S. Department of State). Before October 2015 the bulletin published one cutoff date per category; that is shown as the Final Action Date. Past movement does not predict future movement.

Every change since April 2005
