Try to contact the US embassy yourself and see if they can extend her visa till traveler's restrictions have been lifted. 

Visas cannot be extended

Thanks for the replies.

We contacted US customs in Newark airport and they said only Americans and diplomats are allowed to enter.

Is this a fresh ban ? coz my wife came to US on a provisional green card ( stamped on passport ) through UK on May 12. Was she allowed coz UK is out of EU , I am not sure about that but last I checked EU travel ban didn't apply to GC holders

It’s mistaken information. Green card holders are indeed allowed in, as are spouses and minor children of citizens regardless of type of visa.

Hi I just wanted to ask how your wife flew from London. I got a IR1 visa too but the US embassy in my country told me am not allowed to transit in EU countries coz I have a non immigrant visa. My husband is a US citizen and I got my visa on 10th of March it expires in August. Thank you for help 

shouldn't your visa (spousal) be an Immigrant visa ?

It was US Embassy in her country giving wrong info claiming she couldn't transit through Schengen Area or UK with her Immigrant Visa:

She ended up transiting through Dubai instead:
