Thank you so much for the link and for providing me with information. Also I've heard somewhere that Visa for all categories becomes current in the first day of the month. Is it true? 

For the CSPA calculation you use the first day of the month of the relevant visa bulletin, yes.
So example if your priority date is current in the visa bulletin for September 2021 (this will be published in August but it’s effective in September) the “visa available date” would be 09/01/2021.

Thanks a lot again for this information. Another question. What is a dq? Is it an approval letter or is it something else. And after how long the case being approved, is shipped to nvc? I've seen on the internet that it takes about 6 months but does it really take that short time or does it take like years?

DQ is documentarily qualified, it is the stage you are at once you have submitted all required documents to NVC and they have been accepted - basically, it is the last step that needs to be fulfilled before you are scheduled for an interview. 
Once a case is approved by uscis it goes to NVC, that’s usually fairly quick,  no reason for it to take years? What can take years is the time between when NVC gets the case, and when it takes any action on the case because as described earlier, visas cannot be issued before the priority date on the case is current. So say you have a F4 case that takes 6 or 8 years to approval, it goes to NVC after approval, but then it just sits there for another 6-8 years until around 6-12 months before your priority date in chart A is expected to be current. Around this time frame, your priority date will be published in chart B, dates for filing. This is the point that NVC contacts you /petitioner for documents to be submitted, so that everything will be ready to schedule for you for an interview when your date gets current in chart A. So the speed of moving from USCIS to NVC is not really important, all that matters is that it happens before your priority date gets current.
