If it’s what you says is true, then you have given us a new hope, thank you for explaining it, one thing I am still little confused is ( the age is frozen as long as you seek to acquire a visa “ filling in the ds260 “   I should acquire a visa within one year of visa availability by filling the ds260 , not the actual visa when it’s issued by the consular? 

The requirement is to SEEK to acquire, all this means is that you have to formally do something to show them that you want the visa. It is out of your control when the actual interview is and they do not penalize you for that. From the uscis website (note that any one of the listed requirements is sufficient)

https://www.uscis.gov/green-card/green-card-processes-and-procedures/child-status-protection-act-cspa
 

Sought to Acquire Requirement

In order to benefit from CSPA as a family preference (including VAWA), employment-based preference, or DV applicant, you must seek to acquire lawful permanent resident status within 1 year of a visa becoming available to you. This is referred to as the “sought to acquire” requirement.

You may satisfy this requirement by:

• Properly filing a Form I-485, Application to Register Permanent Residence or Adjust Status; or
• Submitting a completed Part 1 of Form DS-260, Immigrant Visa Electronic Application;
• Paying the immigrant visa fee to the Department of State;
• Paying the Affidavit of Support (Form I-864) review fee to the Department of State (provided the applicant is listed on the Affidavit of Support); or
• Having a Form I-824, Application for Action on an Approved Application or Petition, properly filed on your behalf.

I heard that  age does not freeze in green card petitions,  and you have to acquire your visa within one year of filling the ds260 form.  He does have a time limit, that’s what some lawyers interpret cspa, I could be wrong.

No, you instead have 1 year from the priority date becoming current to file either DS-260, I-485, or I-824. Once you file either of those your age is permanently frozen.

 

Note however that there things that can still kill or downgrade the petition:

1. If this is F2A or F2B, or a derivative application you marrying would kill the petition.

2. If this is a F2A, your parent sponsor naturalizing would downgrade you to F1 because your age at time of your parent's naturalization takes precedence over the normal CSPA age.

sadly  I contact a  lowyer  in USA. I want to make sure that what you guys said is correct  especially  that  with the information  from the website  its only make us lost more then we  are . 

so the lowyer  said. 

in the date on the interview  the officer  substruct the time that the I130  stays  in the uscis ""from apply  to aproved "" from the age of the applicant.

if it's still under 21 he is fine if not his category  will change 😥😥

Honestly I’m not engaging in this any further. I have given you the official links that explain how this works. If you still want to believe you’re going to age out when you’re not, despite what the department of state and uscis pages explain, despite the clear statement that your CSPA age freezes, whatever.  I’m not wasting my time here further.

Don’t worry too much. You will be fine, you still have a chance. It’s possible the lawyer might not know other hidden details of cspa as SusieQQQ explained it here.

let’s wait and see. If you stress time will pass slow.,

Nothing, 😑 I have been waiting for an interview for almost 11 months now, 

The NVC had sent me 120 days notice to wait I got this email on 3rd/March/2021 .” The next communication you receive from NVC will be either a notice that your appointment is scheduled, or if an appointment is not scheduled within the next 120 days, we will send a notice confirming that your case is still in line for an interview “

It’s getting out of control now, it’s really not so good what the state department is doing. First of all Their tiered approach to Visas is really unfair. Yea the department said they will keep sending these 120 days, 60 days notices emails repeatedly to people until they get their interview appointments. I hope you, we hear something good in coming weeks.
