No. You and everyone else is waiting for interviews. NVC is not booking them until embassy tells them they have availability.

I found this list of valid reasons on a immigration site, and delay by NVC is on the list, however if the delay is related to Covid and not a processing delay, it's doubtful they'll approve it.

 

Reasons to request an Expedite:

1.  Health of the Petitioner (it must be a serious medical condition)
2. Having a psychological evaluation on trauma the beneficiary has experienced in their home country (such as sexual abuse)
3. Financial hardship
4. A child aging out (turning 21 years old) (note the Child Protection Act may protect the beneficiary from aging out)
5. Delay by the NVC
6. The beneficiary needing to care for the Petitioner due to a medical condition
7. Pregnancy of the beneficiary nearing term
8. Any other hardship factors.

He's asking if he can request a expedite,  it would have to be a good reason coupled with documentation in order to move to the front of the line.

You can always request an expedite you need a good reason to have it approved.

No.  NVC is not delaying your case.

There is a backlog at NVC due to the pandemic.  Everyone is affected.  This is the sequence of events for interviews (spousal visas):

1. Case is DQ'd by NVC.

2. Case the enters NVC queue for interview and waits.

3. Consulate informs NVC of available interview date for upcoming month.

4. NVC schedules interview when case reaches the front of the queue for that consulate.

5. NVC notifies person of interview date.

6. NVC sends case to consulate.

After the interview is scheduled, it can take several days to several weeks for the consulate to receive the case.

Uh, no.  Everyone is being delayed.  If everyone expedited for that reason, you'd all keep your spots in the queue, wouldn't you?
