About TheVisaTools

Free, fast, privacy-friendly tools that make U.S. employment-based immigration data easier to understand.

Our mission

TheVisaTools was built by someone who went through the U.S. immigration process firsthand and found the existing resources confusing, scattered, and often out of date. This site exists to make immigration timelines and eligibility rules easy to understand — for free, with no account required.

What makes this site different

  • Private by design. Every tool runs entirely in your browser. We never store the inputs you enter.
  • Official sources only. Our data comes from U.S. government publications: USCIS and the monthly Visa Bulletin (U.S. Department of State).
  • Reviewed regularly. Fee figures and cutoff dates are checked against the source and updated as new data is published.
  • No strings. No paywalls, no account, no legal advice — just clear information.

Our data sources

We draw every figure from official, public government pages, and we link back to each one so you can verify it yourself:

Some of our data is more than a single snapshot. For the Visa Bulletin, we compile a month-by-month history: each time the U.S. Department of State publishes a new bulletin, we read the employment-based Final Action Dates table from the official page and record every category-and-country cell by hand. Each cell is checked against the published table before it appears on the site, and the record is append-only — we do not rewrite past months to match later corrections, so the history reflects what each bulletin actually said when it was released. You can read how we compile our Visa Bulletin data in full.

Your privacy

The tools do their work on your device. We do not ask for personal details to run a calculation, and the dates or selections you enter are not sent to a server by us. For more, see our Privacy Policy.

Not legal advice. TheVisaTools provides general immigration information only. This is not legal advice. For your specific situation, consult a qualified immigration attorney or accredited representative. See our full Disclaimer.
