This is crazy we are on hold for no reason everyone is back to normal I think maybe January will be better for us , I will be IR1 December 10 and I’m still waiting for this process

I think no one is lucky yet. as per NVC, usually appointment will be 1 month advance so if no one receives appointment letter until End of Nov2020, means no interviews in December. Possible they will resume fully from Jan2021 only.

Yes that’s what I think nothing yet from them no updates , I will try to email them in December again and see

Hopefully everyone will get interview. I am afraid if they will start on 2021 only.

Got email from USEM in Riyadh and they replied to expect further delays in schedule interviews esp when your documents are still at NVC. (NVC will schedule the interviews when they are notified for available dates).

 

NOTE: Routine Visa processing was stop last March 22, 2020 and they just started last September 21, 2020. that's about 6 months delay.

They sent me the same thing when I asked about my case I think this its a copy past answer it’s strange Bc the COvid  cases in saudi is really  low

Omg this will be crazy it’s longer than the USCIS process I didn’t expect that at all

They says wait for the interview then the consul might require it. but to make sure- il get new one when it expires. I dont want to get  221g coz of expired clearance.

Yes it’s safer to redo it wish you get your interview soon and good luck to everyone 

3 hours ago, Step29 said:

atleast they will start for some IR1 to reduce the backlog. My only concern is my police clearance from my home country. It will expire Nov21. if I cannot have appointment before that, I have to get new one. its a very lendy process.

Did you try to email them about it ? If yes what did they say ?

3 hours ago, Step29 said:

They shouldn't have posted that update if they are not giving appointments. I lost hope of waiting. maybe they will fully resume by 2021.

I don’t think it’s going to be this year as well , I lost hope this year and emailed them and they said your case is still at NVC and you will wait for months ( s ) I email them oct 4 so I think I will just have to wait , my case will be IR1 in December I will compete 2 years of marriage and I’m still waiting !!

I think they didnt give any interviews yet even for IR1. cant really understand the update on their website and they are not moving.

Yes , I didn’t hear of any interview for IR1 or CR1 yet that’s strange 

On 10/8/2020 at 3:51 AM, Mang Kulas said:

Any update from anyone who are DQ and for interview in Riyadh?

Nothing from my side  I hope we hear something good from other members 

2 hours ago, Step29 said:

Its good news but they will only works on for IR1-IR2.. what about CR1. I know that greencard holders are on hold so they have less applicants now

they should include CR1 coz its not banned. they should include it.

This is crazyyyyyyyyyyyyy really why all this category’s is added and not CR1 so do we have to wait until we become IR1 so we get interviewed , but I’m hoping they be done with this and we are next hopefully before the end of this year Bc it’s really to much wait

Other embassies started fiancee visa and some provides interview dates for those who are DQ in April-May2020. I really dont know why Riyadh is not moving except for student visas.

Yesssss , I see here and in Facebook ppl are getting interviews , and for Riyadh even the ones that canceled in March is not yet interviewed , I don’t know why they just don’t give us timeframe so we understand the situation , plz if anyone email them directly and they got any answers let us know , I’m hoping we be able to have any update this month

This is only for student visas.. There is no update on their website yet. Am afraid if they will not resume this year. 

https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/legal/visa-law0/visa-statistics/immigrant-visa-statistics/monthly-immigrant-visa-issuances.html

i find this link of Facebook it shows that they did issue visa in July for spouses and it’s mostly for IR1 not CR1 not sure why.

2 hours ago, Subhan&Ram said:

I was expecting spouse visa category as of first to resume but I guess they ll not operate spouses visas first, 

Yes I was expecting us to be first but I said maybe when they finish from this they start with us , at least they started and not say this auto replays , I’m hoping we are next soon 

I find this today , this might give us hope

US embassy in Canada finally posted an update that they are opening for march & April for those who got cancelled interviews.. how i wish Riyadh also..

i feel jealous other embassies started but not in Riyadh.

That’s good new I really hope they.update us as well , I look at their page daily waiting for update , my Case is still at NVC so they might be finishing the canceled ones first , let’s hope all the GCC is on hold as I read here In VJ

we hope we can received appointment before our clearances will expire.. yes, getting police clearance such a process. time consuming.. hope there is miracle and they will start giving interviews..

Yes I hope you , you can right before me ، I’m was DQ in May so waiting for your update hope it’s very soon

No embassy said it’s still not reached 

so

means still sitting even sleeping at nvc 

my status also shows at nvc

This is reallly annoying situation And I also did 

my police clearance from Riyadh and it was. Not easy process and I don’t wish to do it again , and it was really long wait  , and we considered mission critical but still nothing I don’t know when things can be clear , saudi is fully operating internally.

I hope they will start at least for those who got cancelled appointments. to reduced the backlog. They told in email before they are only processing for CR1/IR1 Cases. I am not sure if they will give me appointment coz my previous  case was CR1  but now it is IW-1 coz my petitioner passed away.

I’m so sorry for your lose  really sorry wish you hear something from them soon I will update you ones I have any news

me too.. anyway, i just got Dq july.. im sure they dont have too much immigrant applicants here compared to Manila and other embassies. 

Yes true , especially that so many visa category’s is baned already  and with Public charge rule it really reduces the number significantly, But when email them they told me you will have to wait for months until you get date  

I’m in Riyadh embassy waiting for interview DQ in May , I really wish they start interview even if it’s far date at least I know it’s coming, my case is still at NVC sense May .
