US Immigration from Kenya

It seems some nations DO NOT consider spouses of US citizens exempt from the presidential proclamation. Should I involve a lawyer or a senator for our case? (I am seeing CR-1 spousal visas being issued in other nations, but it seems our nation misunderstands the ex. order). We tried to get an emergency visa stamping for my husband (CR-1 spousal), and we got denied and they cited the executive order about jobs. Can someone please explain this because I thought spouses of US citizens are exempt. Is our consulate misinterpreting the executive order?

Thank you for your email.

Please note that routine consular operations are currently suspended because of the COVID- 19 crisis. Therefore, we are unable to process the case at this time. More information regarding exceptions is provided on the link below in line with the presidential proclamation.

In the future when consular operations resume, we will review the case. You may monitor the same at www.travel.state.gov.

24 April, 2020

On April 22, President Trump signed a proclamation suspending entry into the United States of certain immigrants who present risk to the U.S. labor market during the economic recovery following the COVID-19 outbreak. The proclamation is effective at 11:59 p.m. EDT on April 23 and expires in 60 days, unless continued by the President. U.S. citizens, lawful permanent residents, and those holding valid immigrant visas on the effective date of the Proclamation, are not subject to the proclamation. No valid visas will be revoked under this Proclamation. Routine visas services have been suspended at U.S. posts worldwide, but as resources allow, embassies and consulates will continue to provide emergency and mission critical visa services for applicants who are not subject to this presidential proclamation. The full text of the presidential proclamation is available on the White House website at: https://www.whitehouse.gov/presidential-actions/proclamation-suspending-entry-immigrants-present-risk-u-s-labor-market-economic-recovery-following-covid-19-outbreak/.

Please stay safe and healthy!

Good day.

1. I sent like 30 pages for ROC evidences, half being bank statements for the 4/5 months preceding my filing. Anyway, I got approved last month.

2. I know of some people, in real life and VJ, who send bulky evidences, in cartons. They get approved.

3. Now I know of a case which sent just I-751 alone with 1 or 2 years tax return and got approved during this COVID19 time, without RFE. Now this one baffles me. I know to each their own and quality is better than quantity, but just one evidence? Mmmm . This is a complete polar opposite of 2 above

Now as the USCIS reopened , does anybody have his interview rescheduled?

Greetings,

We received a letter dated Mar 3 from NVC with our case number and informing us that they were forwarding our petition to the Kenya Embassy, and that the embassy will contact the beneficiary .

The visa status check on CEAC shows ready, case last updated Mar 13. There's further information that case is ready for interview when scheduled at the U.S Consular and to prepare documents as per appointment letter.

My first question is, does the Kenya embassy communicate via postal mail or e-mail?

Based on the information in the tips, tricks and hacks from the NOA2 to NVC to embassy file, one can complete DS-160 once they have the case number but going to CEAC it requires an invoice number which we never received. My fianc is planning on calling NVC tomorrow to request for it. In the meantime, is there another way to get it?

My other question is, is there more documentation to submit once we log in to CEAC? I have read and re-read the NVC visa process but I'm still confused as to whether the same process described also applies to K-1 since it appears as immigrant visa in some content and non-immigrant visa in other.

Thanks
