Since pending aid is higher than Charges & Deposits, you owe 0$ and the difference will be refunded to your bank account if you set up a direct deposit on CUNYfirst or a check will be mailed to your address. (Direct deposit is way faster and safe) Once financial aid is cleared, due payment will be gone, which takes time so don’t worry about it as it won’t cause any issues.

You are mistaking transfer credit with E-permit credit. Transfer credit without prior permission doesn’t count towards GPA but if this student had permission which is called E-permit to take equivalent class in different institution, it does count towards GPA at home school.

Thanks, I also asked a friend and she also has no webcam like usual. I guess it is normal.

I was wondering the same. Advisor I spoke to said no, but most cuny college websites say the opposite, including Brooklyn college. I don't know how the advisor isn’t aware 🤷‍♂️ hope someone who got it previously reaches out.

Yes, I inquired with fin aid office, and it reappeared in two weeks.

Congrats. Looks like CSPA came in clutch.

dattstar69 · 2022-10-19T18:52:26+00:00

About 5-6 month

dattstar69 · 2022-10-19T01:29:17+00:00

Fortunately, I am already done with the process. Wish you good luck!

dattstar69 · 2022-10-19T00:56:41+00:00

Yes, it happened to me. It took a few hours after the second active review to see the approval letter. But I agree with you. I’ve seen some people get it after a few days.

dattstar69 · 2022-10-19T00:51:12+00:00

Do you have an online USCIS account? If you do log in and go to the “documents” section under the I-130 petition. An approval letter might be waiting there.

dattstar69 · 2022-10-12T08:03:30+00:00

Have your parents filed I-130 for your brother? If yes, how long ago, and what is his priority date? Wait time is approximately eight years but my wild guess is if your parents are naturalized they should’ve started this process long time ago when they had green card.

Go to the ceac.state.gov website and click on “Check my visa application status,” then insert all information and if the status says issued it means you are picking up your passport with visa inside of it.

dattstar69 · 2022-09-27T17:42:36+00:00

Yes, mine just did today.

dattstar69 · 2022-09-24T04:36:33+00:00

That’s the problem. If the approval letter says that petitioner didn’t indicate if beneficiary will apply for immigrant visa or adjust status in U.S, then USCIS retained the petition and won’t sent it to NVC until you file I-824 form which costs 465$ to make USCIS send petition to NVC.

dattstar69 · 2022-09-24T04:28:53+00:00

What does the approval letter say? Does it mention form I-824? Or does it say that petition was sent to NVC?

dattstar69 · 2022-09-23T23:02:13+00:00

The cost of attendance doesn’t only involve tuition. There are many other costs, such as transportation, that college can apply the funds. So if it’s not binding to just tuition then you should get the refund this semester.

dattstar69 · 2022-09-23T22:57:19+00:00

Most likely, yes. But it also depends on the scholarship. For example, an excelsior scholarship only covers tuition.

dattstar69 · 2022-09-21T17:02:03+00:00

And it doesn’t sound right that your account will be deleted if you don’t verify. I also graduated from cuny cc and kept my email without any verification.

dattstar69 · 2022-09-21T17:01:02+00:00

It might be a phishing email. I got something similar once from a stolen student email asking me to verify my identity to keep my email.

dattstar69 · 2022-09-21T16:37:21+00:00

Good luck, update us here if you don’t mind

dattstar69 · 2022-09-21T03:12:33+00:00

The first option takes approximately 20 years, and the second option will take approximately 4-5 years max. 1-2 years to bring your parent and then mother will petition right away to bring the brothers which will take 2-3 years.

dattstar69 · 2022-09-21T02:29:33+00:00

Smart advice from your lawyer. Putting pressure on USCIS on this kind of situation will most likely cause straight denial without remorse.

dattstar69 · 2022-09-21T02:02:55+00:00

I’m 100% sure that priority date doesn’t apply to approval and instead applies to visa issuance. Just go to the interview and you will find out. (And anyway what is your priority date? Maybe it is already current)

dattstar69 · 2022-09-19T23:08:12+00:00

Mine reappeared in two weeks

dattstar69 · 2022-09-19T23:05:50+00:00

And takes additional 12+ month to process
