Hi all,
I received the email below on January 23, 2007, from a US embassy. It appears to apply to all embassies. Has anyone seen the notification or know if it does in fact apply to all embassies?

Tom,
We just received an official notification from USCIS (immigration office in USA) that consulates must cease accepting and adjudicating any I-130 (immigrant visa petition).
You must now file the I-130 for your stepson in the U.S. and once it is approved it will be forward to us for processing.
Personally, I very much regret this decision, it will harm many families. Sorry...
