I never looked at the bulletin to be honest and we were just checking the status on ceac site and waiting on their notification. Oh my Lord my knees are weakening right now. we could've been together since 2022. my cancer wouldn't have came back

Oh my gosh! You were right! His Priority date was current from 2021 to 2023 and NVC did not send us anything until 2024 August. Do you think if I will show NVC all this they would at least consider?

Yes it was approved 2021 Decemebr 1. I thought because of COVID that's why it got all delayed, ending up hearing from NVC only until August 7, 2024

His birthday is October 23, 1999. He was 20 years old and 6 months when I filed the petition, June 21, 2020 which is his Priority date. Petition was approved Dec 1, 2021. So are you saying that they have it all right? There were no mistakes or it wasnt wrongly assessed

june 2020 when i filed the petition he was 20 years old then. dec 2021 when the petition got approved. the case was sent to nvc it took 3 years before we heard from them aug 2024 when we paid fees and submitted civil docs for processing. dec 2024 the case was sent to us embassy in manila. biometric med exams was done april 21 2025 interview with consulate, result denied/ refused

but my confusion is coming from this, i filed the petition when he was 20 years old so he falls under this guideline: Effect on spouses and minor children: If you filed a petition for your spouse or minor children (under age 21 and unmarried) while you were an LPR, the visa category was family second preference (F2A). When you become a U.S. citizen, NVC will upgrade the petition to an immediate relative (IR) visa category. This benefits your immigrating family member(s) because there are no limits on the number of visas that can be issued each year in the IR categories. Also, under a federal law called the Child Status Protection Act (CSPA), visa applicants can “opt out” of conversion to the F1 visa category and remain an F2B visa applicant. This may be beneficial because sometimes the wait time for an F2B visa is shorter than the wait time for an F1 visa. but it appeared that they based they're assessment on this guideline : Effect on adult children: If you filed a petition for your unmarried adult children (age 21 or older) when you were an LPR, NVC will change the visa category from family second preference (F2B) to family first preference (F1). We even got an email from NVC saying "Congratulations! The US embassy/ Consulate General agreed to expedite his visa application process, we thought because of the above mentioned reason (effect on spouse minor children) which lead us to biometrics and medical examination only to find out he was denied/ refused??? NVC should've just said "We apologize but your son will be re- categorize and please hold up paying/doing biometrics and medical exam for now, blah blah blah, instead, right?!

This is so disappointing. I have been battling cancer by myself here in the US, doing everything by myself. My ex husband divorced me after finding out my illness but helped me with all the treatment. I was a lawful permanent resident when I filed the petition for my son which could've avoided if the ex husband included my son when we were adjusting my status after marriage. My son was then 20 years old. The petition got approved after a year but because of the COVID issues, it took 3 years before we finally heard from NVC. NVC send our case to the US embassy Manila, we paid for NVC's fees, did his biometrics, medical exam which nearly cost $1000 only to find out my son's case was denied/ refused because he has aged which for the Love of God, not his fault. I tried to appeal but the US embassy said adjudication are usually final and any appeal won't work. Please advise or tell me what to do more. I just want my son to be here with me. Five years have taken away from us. He even feels like he's dream has been taken away as well.
