  1. Just the news from the embassy in Vietnam:

    "U.S. Embassy Hanoi and U.S. Consulate General HCMC are open and will continue to be so until instructed otherwise. All Consular Services: American Citizen Services, Non-Immigrant Visa Services, and Immigrant Visa Services will continue until further notice. Other activities will be reviewed on a case-by-case bases.

    For more information, please click on the following link.

    Confirmed that they 're still opening.

    Consular operations will continue if the government shuts down, which means that people would be able to get visas and passports. However, there is an exception is for passport offices that are located in buildings that are otherwise shutdown, so some people may see delays in their applications. Travel plans for State Department personnel will mostly be put on hold, as will all new employment offers. The State Department has not released exact numbers of furloughs, but in previous shutdowns, furloughs were felt more heavily at the department's headquarters in Washington than at posts overseas. The State Department contingency plan did not list the total or furloughed number of employees at the department.

  3. So the government already shut down, ILs probably will be delayed longer, i've been waiting like forever and when it's only 2 more days till my priority date, this happens sad.png

    " If you need a visa

    Because consular services at U.S. embassies and consulates around the world are largely funded by application fees, not annual appropriations, visa applications filed by foreigners wanting to enter the United States will continue to be processed, according to the state department spokesperson. "

    Hope this 's true.

  4. As delightful as that would be, the truth is that it will move just two weeks. If it had moved three weeks, I would have gotten a letter. But better than no movement, right? Small blessings, and etc.

    Meanwhile, I've tried calling the NVC -- they're incredibly hard to get in touch with, it seems. All their lines are down. Could they be in their offices laughing at us all?

    Anybody has Miguel's number? Hey hey, ho ho.

    Me too, it 's hard to get in touch with them, waiting too long...

  5. F1ers who will be next in line of waiting ILs
