About

CSPA Tracker was created to bring fragmented Employment-Based Visa Bulletin data, historical movement, and CSPA timing into one transparent, privacy-first planning view. It explains dates and scenarios without predicting immigration outcomes.

Disclaimer

Informational planning only. DOS and USCIS rules, filing-chart availability, and individual eligibility can change; verify official guidance for your case.

Calculation methodology

Calculations use the selected DOS employment-based cutoff, exact calendar dates for the CSPA critical date, and scenario math rather than outcome predictions.
