1. Is there any way to find out the approval date of I130 without filing I-824 to get a duplicate one? I think we lost ours and now need that to determine the cspa age! 
Is it the same date when the case was fwded from USCIS to NVC?


 

2. when does the age freeze for kids? When the case is sent  to NVC or when the interview is scheduled at the embassy? 
 

3. any idea about the current F3/ F4 interview dates?

There is a bof difference between F3 and 4 which is it?

“If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat. If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle.”

No, it’s not the date it was forwarded, usually quite a bit before that. You should be able to see it on your online account. 
 

Islamabad is a long wait for an interview, at least a year I think, but a search of threads will give you more info.

Thank you. Actually I was able to find out their approval date online after posting this. It was 10 years beofre it was forwarded to NVC.

 

when do they freeze the age?

 

I have an idea about F3 interview timeline so wondering about F4 for nvc and interview with a priority date of 12/26/2008. Thanks

Still a long way off becoming current. Maybe 4-5 years as a very rough guess, less if the Islamabad backlog lessens.
