Forgot Form I-130 approval date to compute for CSPA

[Angelikaa 5]

Hello everyone! Hope you're doing fine.

 

I am a derivative beneficiary under F4 petition and I recently turned 21 years old last JULY 3, 2020.

 

Our priority date is JUNE 2, 2000 and it became current last MAY 1, 2020 in the visa bulletin.

 

I am worried I cannot compute my CSPA age because we already forgot the approval date of our petition (Form I-130).

 

What should I do?

 

Any thoughts would be highly appreciated! Thank you!

Did you ask the petitioner or the main beneficiary who may have the i130 approval letter for the approved date?

If you became current in May you don’t need to worry because you were actually under 21 then anyway. Your age freezes when a visa becomes available (=priority date is current) as long as you seek to apply (submit ds260) within one year of that date.

The petitioner will have that information.

In fact, the petitioner must have that information.

You've already asked this question, and I already gave you the answer.

 

Your CSPA age is under 21 since the PD became current before you turned 21 years old.

Yes. He (the petitioner) also tried to find in his email the notice of NVC but he wasn't able to find it. So he already forgot the approval date.

To be honest, I am hopeful because of what you said. Yes I was under 21 when the visa became available.

 

I'm just afraid that on the day of the interview they will compute for my age and they might say I aged out. In the end, I'll be denied and will be left here in the Philippines.

 

I'm worried because from what I have read, someone who will migrate to US should enter the country before turning 21. Is that true?

Yes but unfortunately, he has forgotten the approval date. He cant find the notice of NVC in his email.

Thank you so much for this. Just like what I have replied above:

The only people who need to be under 21 when they actually enter the US are K2. For the very last time, your age was locked when your visa became available. If you don’t believe all of us who are telling you this please look up CSPA USCIS and read it for yourself.  It gets tiresome repeating the same thing constantly.

OHHH I SEE. I understand everything now.

 

I am sorry if I annoyed you with me repeating the same situation and questions. I really cant help but overthink like literally everything because I turned 21. :( 

 

but you really are a great help!! I was really worried to the point that I think about this everyday. I apologize for being repetitive.

 

I promise I am now enlightened by this. 

 

Thank you so much for replying. You are a big help. Stay safe ❤️
