did anyone call nvc for interview schedules??

Exactly this is what I was talking earlier in this thread. Here is some more analysis...

I just looked at the visa report for the year 2010 posted at http://travel.state.gov/visa/statistics/statistics_1476.html. It was surprising to see that almost five times more number of visas were given to family fourth preference category compared to family second preference. I don't quiet understand this logic. Then what is the use of F2 preference if F4 were given more visas than F2.

As the many number of F2A are waiting, NVC can not say that there were less F2 demand, so unused F2 visas were given to F4.

I did a simple arithmetic from visa office report for FY 2009. This what I am surprised to see. Visa's are not distributed uniformly.

For china F2A(1,131+1,201=2,332) F4(12,757)

For India F2A(831+902=1,733) F4(18,001)

For Mexico F2A( 28,460 + 46,551 = 75,011) F4 (7443)

from above, we see Mexico was issued 75,011 as against 2331 for China and 1733 for India. If 7% country limit is applied to family preference, max visa for a given country for all category together should be 25,620.

more over, I cannot comprehend why Mexico is issued more F2A visas than F4, Where as for country like China and India F2A is far lesser than F4? The preference should be for F2A OVER F4. Isn't it?

OMG!!I'm really shocked by these numbers..

But there cud be one possible reason is that there are only few F2A applicants from India.

did anyone call nvc for interview schedules??

I'll call them after work, but still my PD is a long shot we need that people with closer PD call.

If there is few F2A applicants from INDIA, then, why there is retrogression for F2A. As F2A applicants are waiting, then how come they can give more visas to F4?? What is the use of second preference??...They should put F4 as second preference and F2 as fourth preference...

nvc said they are working at 22 marsh 2008

I hate to hear this!!! This SUCKS and STINKS!!!
