Answer
Visa Bulletin is published monthly by Department of State:
- Shows priority date cutoffs for each Green Card category
- Determines when you can file I-485 or get Green Card
- Has Final Action Dates (when visas available) and Filing Dates (when can file)
- Published monthly (around 10th of each month)
For India/China: Priority dates move slowly. Check monthly for updates. Dates can move forward or backward.
