Thanks. I didn't know Nebraska was processing F2As. When did you receive your NOA 2? I wish you the best. It's always good that NVC is processing your case. It's more hope for us VSC folks

I've read in the comments section of the link below that some with april PD have already been contacted by NVC to start processing. If it's true, we could now really expect 5-10months movement in the next VB's. :)

Hello,

No one here would be able to telll you for sure when your priority date would be current, We can only estimate with a little bit of accuracy with members timeline. Someone with a priority date of 23 July 2013 was scheduled and another with 01 August was scheduled. My wild guess is that the upcoming bulletin might be 08 August 2013. Why don't you give NVC a call today to see if interview has been scheduled for you. who knows. NVC is full of surprises. Good luck.

All the surprises in the world will not matter for those like me who are stuck in VSC unless they start approving applications and sending them to the NVC. From my understanding though, majority of applications between September 2013 are in VSC so that means chronologically by VB date, they should be giving out visas to those folks first before any one from like middle of 2014 priority dates even though those 2014 other service center folks are already in the NVC stage.

I at least want to start getting documents ready to send over so that I don't have to waste time later. I hope that the VB cuts off at least around August 15th or 22nd because then the VB would be only one month away from the dates that VSC is currently processing. Once the VB is in September, the VSC has no excuse whatsoever to not process our applications AND since the NVC is taking about 60 days to review applications, this would be the right time to start seeing VSC approvals. This is just getting ridiculous now.

I see from various websites that they are scheduling interviews for July and early August PDs for F2A. So the April visa bulletin will move to early or middle of August which will be 6-7 weeks movement. Not great but not too bad either.

Hi frinds I had applied for my wife the PD date is September 12,2013 and I had completed case with NVC on September 9,2014 any idia when she get her interview date ?

Looking at the current trend with people in early August getting visa interviews scheduled, it looks like it will take another two months for your wife's visa interview. Good Luck

We can hope. I just want VSC to start approving applications. The worst part is that I feel that they won't start moving up their processing date until the VB priority date reaches or passes Sept 30. That could take 2 months before they start approving VSC applications. My priority date is a while away anyway. Uggh the wait is horrible.
