In this blog post, we'll explore the process of forecasting Green Card filing dates using a simple linear regression model in Python. By analyzing historical data from the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), we can use basic machine learning techniques to predict future filing dates. I will walk you through the process step-by-step. Gathering Data: To begin our journey, we need to gather relevant data. You can collect data from USCIS or other trustworthy sources. This dataset should include essential information such as the visa category, country of chargeability, and the final action date for each month. For this use case, I collected data manually from USCIS visa bulletin for India EB-2 and EB-3 categories. Data looks like this - Visa bulletin - Building the Linear Regression Model: Using Python libraries like scikit-learn, we can construct our linear regression model. This simple yet powerful algorithm will help us forecast Green Card...
