I hope you hear something soon! it used to be they would send interview letters the beginning and the 15th of the month for ISL but now it just seems like things are getting longer. From my understanding of the facebook groups..alot of the interviews have been Afghanistan too. I hope they find a way to fix all these different circumstances 😕

I get that there are circumstances happening there but to push out the people who have been waiting longer isn’t right. We all miss our loved ones and want to get to them as soon as we can. They have been stuck on February 8th since May and getting no where.

I agree, it definitely isn't right at all... I think even the Feb 2021 DQ are for interview dates in end of July 2022 ? So 7 months of the year are already kind of booked and we're only in Feb 2021 dq. I can't imagine the backlog getting fixed as quickly as people were hoping before and it's so not right.

 

I just don't understand why USA just left Kabul folks basically without any resources at their embassy and now of course they're getting expedites due to humanitarian crisis etc. This is just an awful combination of ISL embassy being backlogged but USA not finishing what they started and just ditching them too. The embassy should then be given resources to handle only the Afghanistan cases separately or something.... 😕

 

Inshallah we'll be with our families soon and can only hope.

US is great for helping until they can’t get something out of it. So them not helping in Kabul doesn’t surprise me. July is already booked with interviews and now people dq February 9 2021 and on are now looking at an early August interview. This is the website I’ve been using to keep updated.

They just posted on that group that I’ve been keeping track of visas that are being scheduled. Why in the world does it have one about India? This is US Pakistan Embassy not India.

So I am not even DQ'd yet.. I'm seriously considering potentially looking at jobs in other other countries so we can transfer our case..because even that would be shorter than 1.5 years? Any thoughts? Is there any hope the backlog will be fixed because this is just straight up ridiculous and seems to be getting worse. Looking online alot of folks seem to be transferring there cases to other embassies (legally there of course, proof of residence and new phone number required I think) if they are from Nigeria or Pakistan (backlog countries)....idk anymore

I believe London is a shorter wait than Islamabad if you can find a job there it would definitely be faster. Here’s a chart of how bad the backlog is
