That motion was already finished when the New York federal judge ruled that the families of the case who were already approved but then denied must have their visas issued. 3 of my cousins were apart of that case. Julie along with maktab Marhaba are filing another case for other families including me. For more information, get in contact with them.

Is she filing for those who were interviewed in 2018?

Why isnt there more media attention to this heart breaking story? If only the govt had made some sort of basic information available maybe this US CITIZEN would have known his wife and children are on their way. We are not challenging the ban here. Just need information.

 

Does anyone on this thread know contact info for reporters who can make this travesty more visible? Jeremy stahl? Abigail hauslohner?

[Shamwow 7]

Maktab Marhaba has been posting some good feedback about the consulars now issuing visas. I hear many people have been issued past 2 weeks and it's just a matter of time. You can follow them on Facebook.

Hope this is true...

Are these for people who were approved prior to the ban? Or are they approving people who interviewed in 2018 also?

7 people who were contacted by the embassy to repeat their medical exam have RECEIVED their visas today! 

[Shamwow 7]

Has anyone gotten an email from the Djibouti embassy called waiver reconsideration. They told me my wife would be considered for a waiver and that I would be contacted soon. I was also shown an updated refusal letter but the check mark was at the bottom box.

Yes some people has received the exact same thing and some people waited couple of months and received an email from the US Embassy of Djibouti saying they need to renew their medical exam. Inshallah we all receive an email from the US Embassy of Djibouti soo and inshallah this month.

A sister in Riyadh was granted a visa prior to the ban. petitioned by her mother who has a green card, was contacted by the embassy after they asked her to fill the form of the exception .. They asked her to send the passport through Samsa ... and was granted a visa 

I would like to share with you the news because of your interest in Yemeni expatriate issues

10 people received their visa in Malaysia in the last week.  

Also, According to Maktab Marhaba that The only exception that They see is that anyone with family preference visas are categorized under undo hardship per the the presidential proclamation and from what They were told the embassy received new guidelines relating to how they process the waiver, wherein they are changing their procedures and reconsidering cases for waivers and thereafter they wait for final security clearances from Washington

Can you clarify this? Is spouse is considered family preference? What is the change in procedure exactly? So anyone in Washington is just waiting for security clearance?

Also, the Yemeni people all receiving visas are ones who had previously been given letters saying they were approved? or there are also visas for those who were not told previously that they are approved?
