Help for F2A applicants from June 2025 Travel Ban countries

[VTaylor9 6]

Hello,

Looking to compare timelines and experiences with anyone else in the F2A category from a recently banned country (especially Afghanistan or Iran).

Married to or minor child of an LPR/Green Card Holder and not exempt from the travel ban.

 

Do you already have a visa interview with a consulate abroad?

Are you delaying or cancelling this interview?

It seems that without some exemption, I.e. marriage to a USC or some national security exception (very rare), that the visa would be denied.

 

If the interview is requested to be delayed by the petitioner, would they go to the end of the line?

Has anyone kept an interview appointment that was scheduled before the June 2025 travel ban change and occurred after it? How was your experience?

 

 

Thanks,

V. Taylor

Forget about it. While the ban is in force, they cannot come.
