Nope. Your assumption is totally wrong. It will move for sure. Bcz NVC rep told that they are working on Feb PDs. It means that movement is there. Otherwise,according to last VB,its 1 Feb means other PDs of Feb are not eligible but its not so for Nov. Keep hope alive

Just to share with you some numbers, last year they issued 2,014 F2A visas for India that means if they are going to issue the same this year they have to schedule 167 interviews a month but if you look into mumbai scheduled F2A interviews for October you will find that they just scheduled 35 and if they scheduled the same number in Delhi that means only 70 a month!!! way less than what it should be scheduled.

Taking Egypt as another example they issued last year 382 F2A visas that means if they are going to issue the same this year they have to schedule montly 32 interviews but they just schedule for october 13 interviews which is also so less.

I don't know how things are going inside NVC but looks like they have a problem.

EBOLA screening will start at US Airtports and JFK is likely the first one. I don't want to sound like a conspiracy theorist but I am wondering if the Ebola outbreak in Western Africa in addition to reports of cases appearing in Europe and the US this might prompt the Department of State to review the whole Interview process specially for Ebola hit countries. In the absence of screening capabilities in pretty much everywhere, it is likely that extra measures will be applied in all US POE which means the DoS may have to decrease the number of immigrants entering the US in the months to come.

I think there's something wrong, I don't know what are their plans but they shoud be releasing visas faster since most cases were finished last year, it should be at least around june right now... I'm afraid they will keep moving slow and by the end of fiscal year theres going to be a big jump, I don't think it's gonna be current like last year but i think a big movement it's gonna happen... These are just thoughts, no one can really predict anything.

I wish it goes fast.

This is an aproximate timeline, I tried to complete it trough the e-mails I still have, I don't know why I couldn't find all of them...

Actually it's ok to find some case numbers after yours because the case number doesn't reflect the priority date some with older priority date their file reached NVC after yours and that's why their case is current right now.
