processing 2008 cases as per May 2025 VB...

You are aware that F4 will take 15-17 years, and while I-130 approval provides you with peace of mind, it is not beneficial to the beneficiary's dependent children because they will age out when their PD becomes current, so don't worry and forget you even filed a petition; that is best for your mental health. Good luck.

@FM GM it’s not always visa bulliten you should look at that’s why:Getting a Visa Out of Bulletin: Sometimes, a visa might be issued even if your priority date hasn't reached the cut-off date on the bulletin. This could be due to various factors, including visa numbers becoming available unexpectedly, or changes in how visas are being processed.

@Vitch Vitch That is not true; brothers and sisters of US citizens fall under the family preference category, and the number of available visas is limited, which is why there is a backlog in those categories. Right now, NVC is scheduling interview appointments for those who submitted their applications in 2008, so you will not receive a visa until your priority date becomes current, regardless of your circumstances.

@kalid jamma Where can we see that NVC is making appointments for 2008?

@Vitch Vitch that is highly unlikely to happen, you will get ur visa based on ur PD, the only exception is that if the visa qouta allotted to your country is available, but that is also unlikely as the visa # r limited for F4

@Akshay Tailor check VB u will get an idea which PD cases r being processed
