My priority date is 30 sep 20. My question is if my visa class is not current then why CO said it is approved and you will receive your passport within 3-4 weeks. My another question is that if I apply for expedite then will they issue visa regardless of priority date. Incase my request is approved

Priority Date 30-sep-20 Vissa Class F2A Till March 23, F2A Vissa class in Visa Bulletin was current. From April till now it is 08-Sep-20 for F2A Category. US Embassy sent me Interview Appointment on 3-March-23 which says your Interview is scheduled on 16-Apr-23. I attended the scheduled appointment on time. After 6 weeks of my interview I sent and email to Embassy for enquiry of my visa because it is still showing “Ready” status. They replied “Your visa class has retrogressed. Please check the Visa Bulleting and contact us when the case become current and ready for issuance.” My question is that is it normal scenario that Embassy works like this or they replied me this information by Mistake? Because Interviewer (Consular Officer) told me your Visa is approved and you will receive your Passport with in 3–4 Weeks. So if I was Invited to the interview and as per CO it is approved, still should I be affected by Retrogression ? Please advise should I ask them again or should I wait till my Priority Date to be current.

Final Action Date was "C" in March-23 Bulletin for F2A Category and I received my Interview Letter on 3-March-23. So Is Final Action Date is related to Issue Interview Letter or to issue Visa ?

Hi All, My Priority Date is 20-sep-20 and Category is F2A.My interview is done on16th April 23. Interviewer congratulated me and told me that Visa is approved and they hold my passport for visa and said it will be delivered to 3 to 4 weeks.. Till now today (24th May 23) Its status is Ready. As per this month Visa Bulletin Report. Final Action Date for F2A Category is 08-Sep-20. Is this the reason that my visa status is still not "Issued"?
