To Everyone Who is Concerned With CSPA.
I had gone yesterday to U.S. Consulate in (Mumbai) India, to inquire when the regulations regarding the New Age Out Law will be Passed by the INS. Its Seems like the INS has already finalised the regulations, and the sad & disappointing news is that the Law has not been given a retroactive effect, It will not benefit cases in which a final determination for visa has been already made for the parent beneficiary before 6th of August 2002. The law will only benefit Derivative children of new cases after its effective date i.e. 6th August 2002.
So i am very much disappointed that i too have been left behind and could not get the benefit of the law. I think its very injust on the part of the INS to not to think of the many people who will not get the benefit from the law and will have to wait years and years more to unite with their family out over there.
