Section 6: Workload Distribution, Continued
Procedure for
Staging for the
Visa Hold Shelf
The Visa Hold Shelf holds cases whereby a visa number was available at the
time of filing, however, between the date of receipt and the date of
adjudication, the visa became unavailable. These I-485 filings are otherwise
ready for approval. These cases are staged chronologically by priority date,
preference category and country of chargeability until a visa becomes
available. They are reviewed monthly to determine visa availability.
