Good day,

I would like to ask for help regarding this message on my NVC portal. The case is F4 filing date 2021 and priority date 2008. Is anyone get this message and what happened to the case?

Due to the numerical limitations on immigrant visa issuance prescribed by law, this petition is not eligible for further processing at this time. The National Visa Center (NVC) will retain the petition until an immigrant visa becomes available. The NVC will notify the petitioner, principal applicant, or attorney of record when this petition is eligible for further processing. The principal applicant should not make any firm plans such as disposing of property, giving up jobs, or making travel arrangements at this time.

Assuming the filing date was sometime in 2021 -- which would be the Priority Date (PD) for your petition -- the approved petition will be held at NVC for at least the next 15-or-so years.  A year or so before your PD of (some date) 2021 is expected to become current, NVC will contact you to begin the document submission process.  Until then, you will not hear anything else.

 

Not completely sure what you meant "...and priority date 2008".  The Current PD for F4 visa applications is 22 Apr 2007 -- cases with petitions filed on or before that date are now being processed for visas.  The 01 Mar 2008 in Chart B of the Visa Bulletin is for those who are in the US and applying to adjust status; they can start submitting documents to USCIS now.

Assuming it is 2008 PD none are current.
