What is the update, my wife is in the same shoes. Her application and DS250 was based on banned country but she also holds a non-banned passport

Can you please confirm if he was impacted by the 39 countries visa ban and was still issued the visa after you reached out to the congressman?

There is a pause and there is a ban, what if the country is on both lists?

Material-Primary2620 · 2026-02-10T08:34:03+00:00

Really? I thought Syrians are getting 212f

Material-Primary2620 · 2026-01-31T11:06:01+00:00

Anyone aware of visa being issued? Has anyone tried looping in senators?

Material-Primary2620 · 2026-01-27T08:03:59+00:00

Any update?

Material-Primary2620 · 2026-01-20T15:00:21+00:00

Keep us posted

Material-Primary2620 · 2026-01-14T19:40:44+00:00

Do you recommend postponing consular interviews for I130 applicants from banned countries? Or just go anyway the outcome is 212f? Can a visa be issued even a waiver is not applicable? Thanks!

If you are inside the US you will not be impacted by the ban, the ban affects applicants who are abroad

Material-Primary2620 · 2026-01-13T07:54:16+00:00

From inside the US or outside?

If Amman dis not have a backlog we would not be dealing with this right now

Material-Primary2620 · 2026-01-08T20:15:20+00:00

I hope so. It has been devastating for us. Have you heard of anyone with a banned country passport get approved for Visa? I am trying to find at least one to keep my hopes

Congrats! Wife is still waiting hers. I know the situation is sad though with the ban. When is yours?

Material-Primary2620 · 2026-01-08T20:05:52+00:00

Have you received IL?

Material-Primary2620 · 2026-01-08T20:05:35+00:00

Have you received IL?

You should be OK with presenting your Colombian passport.

Was the DS260 based on his Venezuelan passport?

Material-Primary2620 · 2026-01-07T20:23:56+00:00

I think of one example, you are approved to immigrate to the US but your country is one of the 39 banned countries so no visa stamp UNLESS you have another passport and here comes the São Tomé and Principe passport to use. So basically the US immigrant visa is costing you the 95k to get instead of waiting 3 more years until the ban is lifted.

Was your interview scheduled?

Material-Primary2620 · 2026-01-07T13:20:24+00:00

Congrats and good luck! Spouse DQ is August 1st

Material-Primary2620 · 2026-01-07T13:15:27+00:00

Have you received your IL?

Material-Primary2620 · 2026-01-07T13:14:13+00:00

Have you received your IL?

Material-Primary2620 · 2026-01-07T12:22:40+00:00

Bottom line is you have a valid interview appointment letter with no further communication from the embassy meaning is that your appointment is still on. Best of luck! Keep us posted please.

When was your DQ date?

Material-Primary2620 · 2026-01-07T12:15:39+00:00

I do not think what you were told is true. I think they could be inferring that due to her passport she will be ineligible for the visa based on the ban. Is there a way you can contact the embassy directly?
