Good news. Another 3+ months movement. F4 ROW moved 6 months in last 2 bulletins. Hope not to see retrogression.

My husband just filed for my sister in law. So... 10+ years to go, right? She's currently here on a student visa, expecting to have to go home when she finishes college.

"Data and Projections

Charlie bases Final Action Date movement on the performance of each category over recent months, as well as his visibility regarding employment-based cases pending at the USCIS National Benefits Center and those already forwarded to the local USCIS field offices.

Following an early April 2019 meeting at the National Benefits Center, Charlie will have additional data upon which to base the Final Action Dates in the May 2019 Visa Bulletin. If that data demonstrates shifts in the demand trends, Charlie may alter his projections for Final Action Date movements through the second half of the fiscal year.

Family-Based Preference Categories

Charlie expects movements in the family-based preference categories consistent with those in recent visa bulletins. However, he cautions that we should not get too accustomed to consistent rapid forward movement in these categories. Charlie remains concerned that the lack of apparent demand in many of these categories, which is causing the dates to advance more quickly than usual, may eventually result in a great amount of demand materializing all at once. If this were to occur, it could result in an abrupt retrogression and lead to volatility in some categories.

Charlie recalls that this phenomenon occurred in the family-based preference categories in Calendar Years (CY) 2009 and 2010 when the U.S. economy was lagging. This economic slowdown caused low demand for immigrant visas, which in turn, spurred rapid movement for family-based categories. As the economy improved, the demand for immigrant visas heated up abruptly, causing a dramatic retrogression during the second quarter of FY2011.

In particular, there has been unusually rapid movement in FB-3 and FB-4 Philippines, each of which advance six months in the April 2019 Visa Bulletin. Those who practice heavily in the area of family-based immigration should consult “Section D. Final Action Date Movement” on page 8 in the visa bulletin for more details on Final Action Date movements."

Hello everyone, I am so confused about the problem i have rn. The Nvc has sent to me 2 emails which are said that:

 

"

The National Visa Center (NVC) updated the status of your immigrant visa application. Please go to the Department of State's Consular Electronic Application Center (CEAC) at https://ceac.state.gov/IV. You will need your NVC case number and invoice ID number to log into your account.

Once you have logged into CEAC, please look in your message box or on the Status Chart at the bottom of the page. If NVC has feedback on any items you submitted, there will be a new message with details. If not, please simply follow the updated instructions on your Status Chart to complete your case. If any column says "Pay Now", "Invalid Doc", "Incomplete", or "Re-Opened", that means you must take action by paying a fee, submitting a form, or uploading a corrected/missing document."

 

I have checked the ceac acc if they review my cade yet bc I submitted the documents almost a month ago. And there's nothing change by now. I am concerned if they're just automatically emails, but yet they should give me a feedback for it right? I called them and they said the same.

so if anyone has the same experience like mine, please give me a hand. I appreciate it

Hello 

Just wondering what your PD is? 

We have been trying to contact NVC with no success for weeks now.

I think it is a matter of waiting and keep watching the CEAC to see if it updates?

Best wishes........

How long does it take for the NVC to send the email once documents date has been reached?

NVC - I cannot reach anyone by phone How are people contacting them?

Thanks

When did you submit documents? It seems like a very late PD since the current are already in 2006.

Which contact number reaches NVC - I  just get a message and it cuts me off???😐

Hi all

My files were submitted in 2006 by my Mom. However, she does not recall if she had submitted form Affidavit of Support. My questions are:

1. Should I confirm with the NVC if the document was submitted back then?
   1. If not, should my Mom submit the form for each of the Applicant she's petitioned for (4 siblings total)?
2. In addition, I for sure know she will not qualify due to her income/unemployment, so she will need a co-sponsor, my brother who lives in the same household.
3. Should the brother submit the form now as well or should we wait until they my relatives goes for the interview?
4. Also what is there a cutoff age that the Applicant's daughter/son not be allowed to travel together if the Applicant gets approved to immigrate?
   1. Ex: Daughter of my uncle was 8 when application was submitted, 13 years passed now she's 21 years old (un-married). If my uncle gets approve to immigrate, will the daughter be able to travel together as well? 

I appreciate your response in advance.
