October 2013 F2A Visa Bulletin Prediction

[tataocb 2]

Hello Folks! Just wanted to share that my wife's interview is received and its on oct 2013 .. Yay soooo Happppyyyyyy... Can't wait to see her in the states!!!! BTW my wife is in Afghanistan and on F2A visa... just a question since her priority date is 19th oct 2012 and she has interview on 6th oct 2013, if the visa bulleting for the month of october is not current for F2A so will she still get the immigrant visa after her interview ?????/ I'm so concerned about this.. can someone help me by answering to this

This is great news, because this might mean that the retrogression might be back to Oct 2012 as otherwise NVC might not have scheduled your wife's interview if they knew a visa number wouldnt be available for her by the time of the interview.

As for your question....if by the day of the interview, Oct 6th, the cut off date has been set to before your wife's PD and therfore her PD is no longer current, then it is my understanding that she might go through the interview and get her approval. But if her PD is not current, then that means that a visa number is not available. If that is the case, then I think she wouldn't get the stamp in her passport, meaning she wouldn't immediately get the visa; she would have to wait until her PD is current to go back to the embassy and get the stamp in her passport and wait for the package to arrive.

Since NVC probably already knows what the cutt off date will be as they are the ones who decide it, then it would be illogical for them to schedule an interview knowing a visa wont be available for you at the time. So that is why, some people believe that this means that the cut off date will most likely be set to a date where your PD is current, so the cut off date to be established might be on or after your PD. That would be great news, as it is a full year jump from what the last cut off date established in July was. I hope this is the case, because my wife's PD is November 2012.

Well i hope so too that on her interview date the visa will be available for her. Finger crossed hoping that retrogression goes to nov 2012 so in that case it will be good news for most of us who will be having interview in the month of october. I wish good luck to everyone who got their interview letter for the month of october. God bless!

Let's hope it stays at least end of 2012 in worst case.

I think we will also need a new topic discussion about when the new VB will come out - like on what day, for all of us this will be a critical question really regarding how far back the retrogression is - trust me I don't think we should be so optimistic, we should be cautious and realistic and hope for the best but be prepared for the worst - at least mentally!

Hi! They won't email you if they receive your aos documents you have to call them every now and then. About ds 3032 there's an auto response once you sent the email regarding COA then wait for atleast 15-20 days for their response.

P.S.

There is a thread here regarding NVC process might as well read there. You can have your answers there.
