Moscow Embassy Interviews Resuming?

[chuy3k 2]

Hello all, my wife's paperwork got DQ'd in April and we have been waiting for an interview date. The current status in the embassy website says the quote below. Has anyone with cases to be processed in Moscow heard anything different/more specific or already received an interview date? Please and thank you! Hope we all hear something soon.

 

         The U.S. Mission to Russia understands that many visa applicants have paid the visa application processing fee and are still waiting to schedule a visa appointment.  We are working diligently to restore all routine visa operations as quickly and safely as possible.  In the meantime, rest assured that the U.S. Mission will extend the validity of your payment (known as the MRV fee) until December 31, 2021, to allow all applicants who were unable to schedule a visa appointment as a result of the suspension of routine consular operations an opportunity to schedule and/or attend a visa appointment with the already paid fee.  Please continue to monitor this site for information on when we will return to routine visa operations.

I am in a group and someone just had their interview. Other groups also show people slowly getting interviews. Hopefully yours also gets scheduled soon.

Thank you for responding, I'm glad more people are getting their interviews. What group do you mean? I have heard of some embassies slowly resume interviews, but nothing about Russia (Moscow) yet.
