Does the annotation under the visa say "Presidential proclamation waived"?

 

I have seen close to 20 visas issued just in abudhabi just to iranians in july so something seems to be moving. Most of these interviewed in mid to late 2018 but surprisingly some from June 2019 as well.

Yes it says on the visa  "Presidential proclamation waived"

@Ameen2019this is so great for you!  Congrats. Get the visa and get the hell on an airplane  You never know what he will change at any moment.

Can I pry and ask if there is some circumstance that made this happen in only 20 days? For example, is there a medical issue? That's very fast and is either a sign of things changing, or just personal to your case.  Thanks.

 

Thank u dear. No special circumstances. I think we got the visa that fast because my wife was born in Saudi and we provided evidence that she has never lived in Syria. We provided details of her travels in the past 15 years in the form ds 5535.  So her police clearance was only issued from Saudi.  I believe this is what help us the most.

I sent them an email . This is the reply from the US embassy. The wait is killing me

The Visa has been issued today   Administrative processing for about 20 days after the interview.  
Don't lose hope and stay strong.

CEAC will show refused until they submit you for the waiver, and then it'll change to Administrative Processing. Give them all the data they asked for like social media accounts and all of that and it will change to AP shortly after.  I hope it's just 2 months for you but we haven't seen that kind of turnaround yet.  Please keep us updated.

Hello guys , 

I'm American , and my wife is Syrian . She had her interview on June 25th in the US embassy in Riyadh. The consular said the application is complete . We just need the approval from DC. She also said within a month or 2 , she will get her Visa! and she gave her a refusal letter . She said this is just a routine thing not to worry about. However, I was just checking the status online . and It says REFUSED !! Last Update June 30th. 

What do u think I should do ?
Thanks 

My application now is at the NVC . I submitted all the required documents online . How long does it take to process ?  And I know I asked about this before . But have anyone prepared the travel ban waiver by himself? How is it look like? Plz any info any advice . Thanks

I wrote an email to the embassy in Riyadh and they replied "She qualifies for a waiver as your spouse at the time of her interview" I'm contacting many lawyers and they asking for thousands of dollars just to prepare a waiver !! Any help? How to prepare for such a waiver? 

I had my I 130 petition approved last week . I just want to be a head and prepared for the interview.  My wife is Syrian who resides in Riyadh. How to prepare a waiver? Thank you

In Riyadh, Saudi @NJ515

I will need a waiver for my Syrian wife . Any advice?
