U.S. embassies and consulates have begun using a tiered approach to manage their substantial backlog of immigrant visas. Many embassies and consulates continue to have a significant backlog of all categories of immigrant visas.
Tier One: Immediate relative intercountry
adoption visas, age-out cases (cases where the applicant will soon no longer
qualify due to their age), and certain Special Immigrant Visas (SQ and SI for
Afghan and Iraqi nationals working with the U.S. government)
Tier Two: Immediate relative visas; fiancé(e)
visas; and returning resident visas
Tier Three: Family preference immigrant visas
and SE Special Immigrant Visas for certain employees of the U.S. government
abroad
Tier Four: All other immigrant visas,
including employment preference and diversity visas
While the Posts will
generally use these tiers in order, where possible, Posts are scheduling some
appointments within all four priority tiers every month. Still the State Department recognizes that visa
applicants, “particularly those in Tiers Three and Four, will face continued
delays.”
Will this affect those on employment base visa but have been expedited by NVC and are just waiting for interview dates?
ReplyDeleteIt effects all IV applicants.
DeleteGood Day Sir Musillo… will this affect all EB3 applicants who are waiting their Interview date especially my case my PD is June 2019 and Document completed April 1 2020 (location UAE Abu dhabi ) which in here their basis of giving ID is when you got DQ(document completed)
ReplyDeleteAnd as of now those applicants got DQ on the month of Jan and Feb 2020 got received their ID for the month of May 2021..
Any advice Sir please
Yes- it remains to be seen how fast the Post moves, and is of course to the delays around COVID.
DeleteHello Sir! My daughter age-out last March, We are still awaiting ID expedite case. Are we included in tier 1 Or those parents with greencard only?
ReplyDeleteIf your daughter has truly aged out, then she is ineligible for the green card.
DeleteIn utilizing the new online media, people in general is currently going to Facebook or Google to discover help before they go to the business catalog. This implies that healthcare suppliers who don't have a web-based media presence will be ignored. manchester pcr test
ReplyDeletedoes this include those who were affected by the Manila Post 221g and have been reaffirmed by uscis? or these reaffirmed cases will be prioritized?
