FB2A NOA2 Approved, PD not Current. What Happens at NVC???

[kalloo 4]

Hi all, I read somewhere that NVC will process approved cases when the PD becomes current OR about to become current. How many months away from the current cut off can be regarded as about to become current? What happens to petitions approved in later in Sep, Oct and Nov 2013? Share if you know.

Dear Shadowflex,

I really apologize for my response for your simple question, it was just my frustration, I am sorry for that. I pray and hope that you will finish this journey soon,

thanks

I totally understand. Apology accepted.

Guys lets remember Kalloo's petition in our prayers because when an expectation is stretched to its elastic limit, it wears out the heart.

Quick Update!

Spouse called NVC yesterday and Voila!!!, they handed over Case Number and Invoice Identification Number. This may be an indication that NVC does truly process cases with "about to be current PD" has presumed. I'd keep you all posted when i get more information.

Cheers

Congrats on getting the Case number and IIN. Keep checking the website often to see if AOS and IV bill shows up for you to pay. Watch out for the email from NVC asking you to pay AOS and IV fees.

Here is the link that i was talking about on the NVc process:

http://usinfo.org/enus/government/forpolicy/types_1309.html

"When an applicant's priority date is close to becoming current , NVC will send an Affidavit of Support (I-864 form) processing fee bill to the petitioner and an Agent of Choice and Address (DS-3032) form to the applicant. ".

I hope you get the AOS and IV bill invoices soon. Goodluck shadowflex.

Shadowflex,

Check the case completion thread. One member did get their case processed at NVC and even got case complete even though their PD is not current. PD for that member is Sep 11th, 2013. :-)

NVC will still process F2A cases even if PD is not current.

Once case complete, they will NOT receive interview letter until their PD becomes current. Their case will sit with NVC.

I don't get why you're all fussing about it.

I guess it depends on what NVC calls as "qualifying date". Anyhow atleast shadowflex can get the process going since it would take some time for NVC to process the case anyway.

USCIS Sent My Immigrant Visa Petition to the NVC. Now What Happens?

If your Priority Date meets the most recent Qualifying Date, the NVC will:

1. Invoice you for your visa application fees
2. Collect your visa application and supporting documentation
3. Hold your visa petition until an interview can be scheduled with a consular officer at a U.S. Embassy or U.S. Consulate General abroad.

If your Priority Date DOES NOT meet the most recent Qualifying Date, the NVC will notify you and hold your petition until your Priority Date meets the most recent Qualifying Date. The Department of State updates the Qualifying Dates on a monthly basis.

How Do I Know if My Priority Date Meets the Most Recent Qualifying Date? And What Does That Mean?

If your Priority Date is earlier than the Qualifying Date for your visa class and your foreign state chargeability, your Priority Date meets the most recent Qualifying Date and your petition is ready to begin processing at the NVC. Learn more by reviewing the Visa Bulletin.

How Do I Know What My Priority Date Is?

The USCIS assigned your immigrant visa petition a Priority Date when you filed it with USCIS. If you are unsure of your Priority Date, you should refer to the Approval Notice that you received from the USCIS.

I don't think its that straight forward like you say. If it was the case, NVC would have just said that they will process the case even if PD is not current in DOS website rather than talking about qualifying date. Looks like whatever NVC calls as qualifying date seems to be beyond PD.

I also got my iin and case number. Pd is sept 16..

You're only confusing yourself, really.

At least i don't pull one from a hat with half baked knowledge.

Prefer to look at stuff with data (In this case data is from DOS that i posted above). :-)

Thanks vkrishn. Got the e.mails already. I will be filling out the DS-261 shortly.

Yes I quite agree with you. Most of your comments have not only been helpful but also sensible.
