Q: Where do I find my Priority Date?

If you are a prospective immigrant, you can find your priority date on Form I-797, Notice of Action, for the petition filed on your behalf. The waiting time before receiving an immigrant visa or adjusting status depends on the demand for and supply of immigrant visas, per-country visa limitations, and number of visas allocated for your preference category.
