US Immigration from Philippines

Can I apply for tourist visa while waiting for my immigrant visa interview appointment?

This has already been suspected, but the July numbers have recently come out for K1 processing in July at USEM. That number was 149 vs 49 for June 2021. It is still way off from the pre-Covid time of 500-600/month but I believe this is the first month since March 2020 that was over 60 or so. People in July were reporting getting interviews but the numbers are now out to substantiate that.

Hi! I am currently applying for an EB3 visa. I understand I can bring my husband with the E-34 visa, but there isn t much information about the steps in the USCIS website. Can anybody help me with the process/requirements to file this? Appreciate it!
