This column is for people charged to Mexico, usually because they were born there. Chargeability normally follows your country of birth, not your citizenship. In some cases you can use a spouse's or parent's country of birth instead (cross-chargeability); ask your attorney whether that applies to you.
Family cases start with an I-130; follow yours with the I-130 tracker, and once you file Form I-485, the green card tracker shows where it stands. You can also check any USCIS case status by receipt number. This page is information, not legal advice; confirm your next step with an immigration attorney.

Across the bulletins we have, from October 2026 to November 2026, the final action date went from Sep 8, 2008 to Sep 22, 2008 (+2 weeks). Past movement doesn't predict future movement; cutoffs can stall or retrogress.
USCIS decides each month whether I-485 applicants in the U.S. use Final Action Dates or Dates for Filing, and announces it on its Adjustment of Status Filing Charts page. Applicants abroad work with the National Visa Center, which uses Dates for Filing to invite documents.
