Notes on Code and Data Sources

Availability status (code and pathway assessed separately)

Code status

Available in official code tables/announcements

The code's presence in official materials proves only that the code exists; it does not indicate whether the pathway is open.

Underlying pathway status

Pathway available

Both the current official eligibility page and the code-table row have been checked and confirm that applications may be made under this pathway; this does not mean that any individual qualifies or will be approved, and a visa number must still be available.

Pathway:T visa (human trafficking victim) adjustment of status。USCIS T-category green card page: T-1 principal applicants and T-2 through T-6 derivative family members may apply for adjustment. Evidence valid through 2026-12-31.

Verification date2026-10-11; independent of the difficulty-of-obtaining-status score; the absence of a score does not affect this status.

Not all of the following working fields have completed legal review. See the newly added verification for the current status of the pathway; unverified fields, such as translated names and legal authorities, are not thereby elevated to verified status, nor does this constitute individualized legal advice.

10Same-Code / Cross-Era Notice

The same code may have different meanings in different eras. The source and era are preserved for each entry below; entries are not merged across eras, nor does their inclusion indicate current validity.

    Adjustment of T6 nonimmigrant

    Official Grouping
    Victims of human trafficking
    Original Snapshot Notes (Not Current Status)

    The official wording in FY2024 Table 7 is 'Adjustment of T6 nonimmigrant'. Under USCIS Policy Manual Vol.3 Part B Ch.4 C.2, T-6 covers adult or minor children of T-2/T-3/T-4/T-5 derivative family members, who must meet eligibility requirements including facing a present danger of retaliation as a result of the victim’s escape or cooperation with law enforcement; they are not T-1 principal applicants, and the category is not limited to minors. No exclusive relationship to a single principal code is designated.

11General Limitations for Existing Holders

  • Discontinuation of a code does not automatically revoke LPR status previously lawfully obtained; an individual's status still depends on subsequent facts.

This page compiles code reference materials. It does not constitute legal advice or determine any individual's current immigration status.
