It's kind of a stupid question, but who calculates CSPA age and whether it is applicable for the derived beneficiary or not? NVC or local consulate? or does the petitioner/primary beneficiary need to prove/fill out a forum? Thanks.

Sorry if I wasn't clear, but my parents are US citizens as of 2018, and I was thinking of filing under their name (if something like that is possible and the existing I-130 p.date can be retained) F3: Married sons and daughters (any age) of U.S. citizens. F4: Brothers and sisters of adult U.S. citizens

Bottomline: Would you recommend changing the filing category from F4 to F3? If so, what happens to the original priority date? Situation: - US Citizen Brother filed for Sister living in India in May 2011, Married + Two Kids - Parents became US citizens in 2018 - F4 Priority date as of Aug 2023: 22FEB06 - F3 Priority date as of Aug 2023: 01MAR10 What would happen if we apply for a change of category at this point (F4 to F3)? Would approval be any faster or does the priority date gets reset? Kids are turning 21 but are protected under CSPA for now. Please share your thoughts. Thank you.

Thanks for the feedback. I have no issues for waiting for I-130 approval up until the point visa number is going to be available. As all of you have pointed out it is wise thing to do! I was just curious about normal processing time 😁 Once I-130 is approved, does it get transferred to Indian Consulate and they calculate the CSPA age when priority date is current? if it is taking about 16-18 years, I think we might be looking at 2027-2029 way things are going right now. That means eldest kid will be about 28 year old. thanks!

sorry.. what I meant was California Service Center I130 processing time has recently dropped to 80 months, (previously if I recall it was like 120+ months) hence I can initiate the case inquiry. Case Inquiry Date = [time to complete 93% of adjudicated cases] – [today’s date – receipt date]
-
Yes.. kids are turning 21 soon so I expect CSPA will allow to subtract I-130 approval time from their age. Did I get that correct?

Anyone here who is waiting for next step on I-130 f4 approval? Priority date is June 2011(country India) and only thing we have heard is NOA1 - receipt back in 2011. It has been one long silence since 2011 but recently I noticed California has dropped I-130 processing time and case is eligible for a follow up. I'm wondering if any one from 2011 has heard anything back from USCIS in recent time. It appears that total processing time is close to 13-14 years so earliest I expect any movement on the case is 2024. Any thoughts, Suggestions?
