Hi!
Some background here - I'm 24, male, born in India and my parents recently received their green cards. I'm still in India. Primary applicant is my father(EB1C). I'm listed as a beneficiary under the case. Note that the I-485 was filed on November 2017 (when I was under 21). And the I140 was approved on August 2018. We also filed an I-824 Application for action on an approved petition within one year of the I140 approval to meet the "sought to acquire" requirement. The I-824 was approved only on October 2020.
Upset with these delays, we reached out to the senator's office and they were very helpful in contacting the NVC about my eligibility under the CSPA. The NVC reached out to the US Consulate General in Mumbai, India and they they determined that I appear to be eligible under CSPA should I file my DS260 by August 2021. Soon after this communication from the Consulate, we received the updated invoice with name in it and filed my DS260. To our surprise, the case was expedited and we received a letter from the US consulate in Mumbai asking to schedule an interview. However, all beneficiaries were listed except me. My parents and siblings already have their green cards. We later called both NVC and the consulate helplines and confirmed that my name is indeed on the case.
My questions are:
-
Can I go ahead and schedule the interview at the consulate? I'm still confused why the rest of my family is listed in the interview letter.
-
Do you see any other roadblocks?
PS: The only concern I have is the current COVID situation in India, especially Mumbai.
Thanks for your patience. I appreciate any inputs. I feel like I'm nearing the end of this long process, and I'm just anxious with everything going on.
