Per-country limit: The annual per-country limitation of 7% is a cap, which
visa issuances to any
single country may not exceed. Applicants compete for visas primarily on a
worldwide basis.
The country limitation serves to avoid monopolization of virtually all the
annual limitation by
applicants from only a few countries. This limitation is not a quota to
which any particular
country is entitled, however. A portion of the numbers provided to the
Family Second
preference category are exempt from this per-country cap. The American
Competitiveness in the
Twenty-First Century Act (AC21) removed the per-country limit in any
calendar quarter in
which overall applicant demand for Employment-based visa numbers is less
than the total of
such numbers available.
Applicability of Section 202(e): When visa demand by documentarily qualified
applicants from a
particular country exceeds the amount of numbers available under the annual
numerical
limitation, that country is considered to be oversubscribed.
Oversubscription may require the
establishment of a cut-off date which is earlier than that which applies to
a particular visa
category on a worldwide basis. The prorating of numbers for an
oversubscribed country follows
the same percentages specified for the division of the worldwide annual
limitation among the
preferences. (Note that visa availability cut-off dates for oversubscribed
areas may not be later
than worldwide cut-off dates, if any, for the respective preferences.) |
