It’s about that time again.

The latest Visa Bulletin should drop any day now, and you’re already getting calls and emails from your clients asking you whether you have an update about when they can file their case.

And if not this month, when?

You’ve reviewed each Visa Bulletin.

You’ve compared priority dates from month to month, opening multiple tabs in your browser or printing bulletins out so you can see everything side-by-side. You’ve got a sense of how dates might move, but it’s harder to take into account the longer term trends.

You can only tell your client the same thing so many times before they start to think that maybe you’re the problem.

Then they start asking friends, strangers on the Internet, another attorney—anyone who might give them the answers they’re desperately seeking.

You want to be proactive, on top of it. And you want to have something more constructive to say than “Visa Bulletin movement is unpredictable”.

Except you have no idea how many of your clients may become current this month. And with no way to plan, you have no idea whether you and your team can handle the case load when the time comes.

You can only wait and react to the next Visa Bulletin.

In the meantime, what do you tell your clients?

“Not yet. Maybe next month.”

You know you should be able to better anticipate the date changes.

And you should be able to predict when a client will become current before they ask. You just don’t have the time to analyze each client’s priority date movement every month.

But what if you could effortlessly summarize the movement of each of your clients’ priority dates every month?

You would demonstrate that you’re in it with them for the long haul, staying on top of any change in their case and ready to file as soon as they become current.

What if you could see beyond the current visa bulletin?

You could provide your clients with credible estimates and ensure that you and your team have the capacity to rapidly prepare the filings.

You would no longer have to wait for the next bulletin and react.

You could actively manage this part of your practice.

The Visa Bulletin may be a black box. But it’s also an opportunity for you to stay connected with your clients and deepen the trust you’ve earned with each of them while getting their petitions approved.

With Enhanced Visa Bulletin

Stay on top of each of your clients’ priority dates.

Enhanced Visa Bulletin will keep track of what dates are current and what dates have moved for each of your clients.

You’ll receive a monthly notification when the latest Visa Bulletin is available.

And every month, you’ll have a summary you can share directly with your clients detailing the outlook for their cases—whether priority dates in the latest bulletin have moved (and in which direction) and whether their priority date is in the forecast for upcoming months.

Track Filing Dates
Track Final Action Dates

See past the current Visa Bulletin.

Enhanced Visa Bulletin uses machine learning and historical data to forecast priority date movements for the next 3 months, helping you plan for upcoming filings and manage your clients’ expectations for both filing and final action dates. We also publish last month’s prediction next to the current actual so you can get a sense of where our model is trending.

Forecast

Develop a sense of how dates are moving without digging through multiple bulletins.

Enhanced Visa Bulletin provides the past 6 months of priority dates in a single, easy-to-scan view.

You can get a rapid sense of how (or if) a particular visa class or chargeability area is moving. And in combination with the forecast (which reflects longer term trends), you can proactively set expectations with your clients.

History

You’ve worked hard to earn trust with your clients.

While the filing and approval processes may take years, you can anticipate your clients’ questions and provide them with the latest information every month, continuing to deepen their trust.
