Hi my pd is dec 2002 . Im under cspa . My fee is paid and de260 completed in jan. But in this vb retro is occured. Does it affect on my age?

[Boiler 43,433]

Yes

Your age when the visa number becomes current is what counts.

@Boiler. But before my pd is already current in aug 2015 . Does they count my age according to first pd current or according to upcoming current date?

Boiler is wrong.

Retrogression does not affect your CSPA age because you "sought to acquire" a visa by filing the DS-260 before retrogression on June 1, 2016. Your CSPA age is locked in as when your PD first became current.

Retrogression does not start until June 1. If you can get a visa before then, you are fine. If you do not get a visa by June 1, you must wait until your PD becomes current again in order for a visa to become available to you. Your CSPA age will not change because of retrogression.

If you are affected by retrogression, a visa can only be issue to you before June 1. After June 1, you will have to wait until your PD becomes current so a visa can be issued to you. Your CSPA age is locked in and will not change since you have already filed the DS-260.

if they put me on administration process

if they put me on administration process

Then you would not receive a visa by June 1. You would have to wait until your PD becomes current again for an available visa and for AP to be complete.

Your CSPA age is locked in to when your PD first became current because you filed the DS-260.

Yes, it's true. Google "sought to acquire retrogression CSPA."

If your CSPA age calculation is correct, then your CSPA age is frozen as long as you submit the DS-260 before retrogression.

@aaron2020

I have submitted all my documents, paid my fees for DS260 and after one month they have said that the case is complete too! the case got completed on 3rd may 2016 last week. Is there any chance that we will have visa interview now or will have to wait for the priority date to be current again?
