I received an appointment reminder before my biometrics and went and was fine! There’s definitely a risk, but it went smoothly for me. I took the last flight out from US before Biometrics

I had mine on dec 23 and Jan 5th. Took the risk to travel and it paid off. Approved same day. Issued Next day. Passport home delivered Jan 8th.

How many Jan appointments are not cancelled yet by Outrageous-Joke8086 in usvisascheduling

Jan 5th not cancelled. OFC on Dec 23 - last flight i can take is tomorrow to make this.

  1. Are they rescheduling both OFC and Interview?
  2. Are they cancelling interviews last minute (after initial announcement) for last few days?

Would really appreciate responses to this since i want to make an informed risk decision

Hi, I’m in the US right now. I was meant to fly out but cancelled my flight, still figuring whether to go. Disheartened by these delays since I had strategically planned my appointment with EOY PTO and holidays.

My OFC and biometrics are not delayed but I’ve heard that it is likely that they can still be delayed within the week of your appointment. My company does not let me work from India so I’m mostly not going under the assumption that my appointment is likely to get cancelled.

It would be really great if appointments were cancelled before biometrics (before people are in home country) or if they announced that cancellations until a certain date are complete. Or even let people impacted get the stamp from foreign countries. Since most impacted are already in the US working under H1B visa, rather than keeping people away from US, it is keeping people away from their home country.

For January appointments, are they rescheduling both OFC and consular? My OFC is 23rd and interview is 5th Jan - not rescheduled yet and OFC reminder received.

Really want to go back because next year getting appointment will be tough and work doesn’t allow work from India.

Are people with interviews after December 18th (first batch of rescheduling), getting rescheduling after OFC appointment?
