In spite of the State Department's notification to USCIS that all EB immigrant visa numbers have been exhausted for FY2011, the USCIS today announced that it will continue to accept adjustment of status applications (I-485) based on the September visa bulletin through the entire month of September. The regulations provide that the visa bulletin published by the State Department controls whether or not there are visa numbers available for an adjustment applicant. The September visa bulletin does not indicate unavailability of visa numbers in any of the EB preference visa categories.
