Can I file my I-485 under the October 2020 Visa Bulletin based on the dates for filing chart?

Answer

UPDATE 2: The USCIS has changed its announcement, and is now allowing for use of the more-favorable dates for filing chart for employment based cases!


UPDATE: The USCIS has now announced that only the less-favorable final action chart my be used for employment-based cases in October. (24.Sep.2020)


The USCIS will announce whether the dates for filing chart (i.e., “Chart B”) can be used for family- and/or employment-based cases in the near future. This information will be posted here on the USCIS website. We will also post this information on MurthyDotCom as soon as we get the word from the USCIS. (24.Sep.2020)
