My cousin's name was added on to file after the PD was current and interview was already scheduled for my uncle.   He was able to get his interview with his parents and paid his fee at the time of the interview. He is 24 years old. Waiting for approval was 5 years.  I don't know if the country you are coming from makes any difference

my family is from India

ok ok woww this gives me hope! I have one more question please help me with this:

what did your cousin do when his name appeared on to file with all of the documents he/she needed to send to NVC ? Did he send them to NVC or did he take his documents to the embassy/interview. 

I don't know if to send my daughters documents along with mine now.. or to take them instead to the interview once she is added

My Sister's priority date is August 26th 2010.

NVC takes at least 21 days to reply the emails.  So far they sent me generic message about my family members that I have to wait until the case gets current.

However, for some odd reason one of the NVC representative activate the application for one of my Nephew.  I paid his fees and my nephew completed his application.

 

Let's see what they reply to you.

 

Wait what! Your sisters PD is August 26th 2010? 

Wow the person who added your nephew added him when you called again? or out of nowhere you logged in and saw that now your nephews application appears ?

You can prepare her documents.

Some folks here say that NVC has activated visa forms for aged out children.  You can call NVC at 1-603-334-0700 or write an email to them to add your daughter; askNVC@state.gov.

 

I have tried emailing and calling them several times to add my nephews/neices but they did not.  They keep telling me to wait for Priority date to become current.  Once it is current they will apply it to all cases just became current.

 

Once they activate the application you can pay the fees and fill out application quickly.

 

Some VJ members have mentioned that the aged out kids were added during interview process.  They were asked to pay the fees at the embassy and fill out application on the spot and got Visa.  

 

I hope this helps.

Okay thank you so much for this! 

I called NVC she kindly said my daughter doesn't qualify because she is over 21, I told her that I thought she did under the CSPA review and she said alright send an email to askNVC@state.gov. and tell them that you don't agree with this decision. 

I send them an email providing all of the information and letting them know that it took our case 4 years and 9 months to get approved and my daughter is now 24 years old and that she should qualify. I'm kind of worried now because what do I do now? Do I go ahead and process my fees and send my documents with out sending my daughters documents?:/ 

what is is your priority date ? and what are you planning on doing about your nieces and nephews situation? 

did did you get a fast reply from askNVC@state.gov. ?

How old is your daughter?  She may have aged out (more than 21 years old).  If that is the case, NVC will apply CSPA law once your priority date becomes current.  Using CSPA calculations, NVC deducts the time it took USCIS to approve your application from aged out children.  So your daughter's age for visa processing will my much less.

 

You can search CSPA in the forum to get examples of how it works.

Okay I understand this, my daughter is 24 years old she would be 25 in november and it took 4 years and 9 months to get approved so she qualifies but since the priority date is not current then the CSPA can't be done yet. 

my question is.. we have to make the payment of the fees but my daughter is not included so what do we do? we don't pay her fee ? or send her documents to NVC?

Hi, 

Your case is at NVC, so you should check CEAC to see if your case is already open:

https://ceac.state.gov/IV/Login.aspx

 

Case status at USCIS isn't important any more.

Thank you so much for that info!!

I don't have my invoice number and i'm not able to log in that page! My lawyer send NVC an email to get our invoice but a month has passed and no reply. Am I able to call as a Benificiary ?? and ask for my invoice through the phone ?

Still waiting for my welcome letter and my pd is sept 2005, send an email to NVC a month ago and no reply!!!

i have a question for those that already got their welcome letter.. before getting your welcome letter what did the USCIS page when checking case status say? mine says: 

When you check your case status in NVC what does it say?

mine says we have mailed your document.. (but that was back in 2010, when they send our approval notice) it has  not changed

Pl do worry about WL, like all of us , u also hv waited long, just give time and relax, in next 4 weeks, Nvc will start sending WL to all personal whose PD is current as per 2nd chart,i.e, 1 dec 2005. So upto 30 nov 2005 they will issue WL. God bless you all.

I am just concerned since here VPP said he got welcome letter on April 7th, how do you know in the next 4 weeks NVC will start sending WL?? I thought they had already done this since some people said they had already gotten it. 

PLEASE people who got their welcome letter post it here !!! I still haven't received mine i don't understand why! 

Hello everyone!! 

I haven't receive my welcome letter with my invoice number and my priority date is sept 2005, i called my lawyer and she said she was going to email NVC asking them for our invoice number and welcome letter 

I was wondering is anyone going through this as well? is anyone out ther whose pd is up to dec 2005 and hasn't received their welcome letter either? i'm just a little worried and don't know why i haven't received it.

I heard people got their welcome letter more than one year before their priority date. Even on the website it says nvc will contact you about a year before for submission of documents and fees.. but unto now I'm still waiting.. vakson007 we have same pd ,,we are one year away.. 2 nd chart has not moved in months..

Yes it does say that, but my pd is sept 21, 2005 and i'm still waiting to receive my welcome letter. I don't know what's taking so long hopefully will see movement in May bulletin for the 2nd chart!
