I also think that notice date is your approval date

[sp1991 28]

I just submitted the papers at VFS ... all they asked for is my father ( principal beneficiary ) and my mother's DS 230 and passport copies .... thats it.

Surprisingly my sister just crossed 2 months after 21 and i am 24 so they dint take both our stuff and asked all of us to just directly show up at the interview with the papers saying the officer will decide.

Now when i am calculating CSPA age .. i still cant figure out where to get my Approval date from, .... on what Document do you get it ?? .... the onyly one i can think of is the I-797 Notice of action..... it has a receipt date and a Notice of action date ......is the notice of action date the approval datE of the petiiton ??

hmm...i think last decision will be taken by CO at mumbai consulate.

your sister's name and your name is mentioned in interview appointment letter ?(p4)

i think your interview is on 7 august..ryt ? i will advise you to carry original birth certi of your and your sister's at the time of interview.

and best of luck and pplz dont forget to update the forum after interview...ok..coz we are sailing into the same boat. my age is 21 and my bro's 25.

but we are protected by cspa.

and let me know what happens into Mumbai consulate regarding your cspa ,after interview complete. ok.

did you check your status application what did it say,i checked it says your search did not return any date,what does that mean?

[sony2001 7]

guys i have question

on the NVC case number the starting numbers are the numbers of approval year right not the priority date year,what does it say on yours?Thanks

[Waleed39 10]

the form 221g or the dreaded AP is also considered as 'rejected'.

if you don't believe, open that link , then copy paste some numbers from july appointment list.

yes, i also think so.

they are displaying 221g under refused...coz there was only 3 words showing, "issued" ,"refused" and "ready"

what VFS stands for,don't the NVC send the envelope with all documents directly to the local embassy,why you have to send them,you should bring them to the interview,it is confusing me,did they ask you for another DS230?tThanks

they asked me for a new DS-230 .... also nvc doesnt send all docs... you still have to get all your originals to the interview and recent ones tooo coz I-864 and all that would have expried by the time ur inteview comes ..

Yeah dude .. our names are mentioned on the interview letter .... interview is on 7th. What confuses me is this CSPA bitchy thing so annoying i swear. I am still not sure what date to consider as approval date coz there is no document which clearly states DATE OF APPROVAL ...so and so....

ONly thing i could assume was the Notic of Action date to be the date of approval for caluclating CSPA thing.

I would also suggest that make a letter requesting the CO to grant you and ur brother the immigrant visa. Mention all the details in the letter with ur age , names , priority dates ... date of approval and resultant grace period with the CSPA AGE and state that as per your understanding of the CSPA act and the following calculation you both should be granted the visas.

Its not necessary but highlighting all these dates / ages and CSPA just makes it easier for the CO to make up his mind ..its like pushing him to make the right decision with ease

Hand this letter to the people you submit your documents to during the wait in Queue on interview date and tell the guy to give it to the CO .

you are right ...cspa is annoying .

for approval date, you can contact to nvc.wrtie an email .

ya,it is possible that notice of action date can be approval date.
