Q: I m having an issued f4 category visa expiring on 20th May, 2020. Please explain impact of new green card policy on visa
A:
If by "new green card policy on visa" you are referring to Trump's proclamation and immigration suspension:
If you already had a valid immigrant visa issued before April 23, 2020, or were in the United States as of that date, you are exempted from the suspension. See the article on my blog for more information.

A:
The Proclamation issued on April 22, 2020 and effective on April 23, 2020 at 11:59 PM suspends entry into the U.S. of immigrants who:
• Are outside the United States on the effective date of the proclamation;
• Do not have a valid immigrant visa on the effective date; and
• Do not have a valid official travel document (such as a transportation letter, boarding foil, or advance parole document).
In your case, the immigrant visa appears to have been issued prior to the moratorium and you should attempt to enter the U.S. prior to the expiration of the visa.
Good luck to you.
