US Immigration from Jamaica

Hello. Looking for some help and guidance. We are at the stage now of booking an appointment at the Kingston Embassy in Jamaica. I get to the calendar to book our K-1 interview appointment and we get an error message saying, system is busy try again later. Is anyone currently trying to book a K-1 interview in Jamaica and have this issue? Or has someone experienced the same issue before? Please help.

Our K1 Visa has been Approved (NEXT STEP IS ISSUED) on CEAC since February 3rd, we are feeling worried due to no case update. The stone silence is deadly.

Does anyone have any idea how long this can take?

Good evening, everyone! I hope this message finds you well. My mother is currently in Jamaica, and I am seeking advice on how to bring her to the United States for surgery. I am a citizen of the United States, while my mother is a Jamaican national. In March 2025, she was diagnosed with meningioma, which are brain tumors. Although the doctors had planned to perform surgery, it was ultimately cancelled. Recently, the hurricane has impacted the hospital in Montego Bay, Jamaica, and they are now planning to discharge her despite the presence of the tumor in her brain. As a result of her condition, she is unable to walk, talk, or eat, and is being nourished through a feeding tube. I would greatly appreciate any information regarding options available to facilitate her travel to the U.S. for this surgery, as she does not possess a visiting visa. The intention is for her to undergo the surgery and then return home afterward.

My mom recently had her Visa interview after she arrived here in the US. How can she get her husband here through the follow to join?
