AlohaHI reacted to Gomez in Manila interview for parents yet!???!
My dad's application was approved in June 2020, DQ'd on 2-16-2021. No interview schedule yet, I'm assuming not for a while due to backlogs.

I'm sorry but you misinterpreted it ... April 10, 2020 was when he signed the memo .... pay attention to what you read ... in the text below it says: “This memo will remain in effect until it is denounced by the President. The Secretary of State, the Secretary of Health and Human Services and the Secretary of Homeland Security shall, as appropriate and in accordance with the interests of the United States' foreign policy and continuing public health risks, justify it, submit a joint recommendation for such termination.

Fear mongering. Trump with all his supposed 'tightening' of immigration didn't speed the process up. One of the slowest and inefficient in modern history.
Biden to the rescue to make America great again after trump messed it up.

Keep waiting. There is no change in the president until the current one's term expires. Trump can extend the ban and the next president can cancel the ban.

Everything remains the same... and if Biden has won the election he won’t become president until sworn in 20th Jan 2021

AlohaHI reacted to Captain Ewok in Biden's Plans for US Immigration (Big Changes)
When Joe Biden takes office in January, he has pledged to reverse many of Trump's controversial immigration policies from the last 4 years. Here are a few key items that Joe Biden plans to change:
Merit-based/Family-based Immigration and Diversity Visa
Biden disagrees with Trump's position of creating a merit-based family immigration system. Biden would instead "expand" family based immigration to the US. He would allow any approved family visa beneficiary, whose green card is not yet available due to the annual country cap, to receive a temporary visa and enter the U.S. until a permanent visa (“green card”) becomes available.
In addition, Biden would support legislation that:
Expands the definition of “immediate relative” beyond spouses; minor, unmarried children; and parents of U.S. citizens to add spouses and children of green card holders, exempting them from caps; and Allows parents to bring their minor children with them at the time they immigrate into the U.S.
Biden would also continue the Diversity Visa program, stating it brings needed diversity.
"Dreamers" and Pathways to Citizenship
Biden believes that Dreamers and their parents should have a roadmap to citizenship through legislative immigration reform. When he enters office he will remove the uncertainty for Dreamers by reinstating the DACA program, and he will explore all legal options to protect their families from inhumane separation.
Public Charge
Biden would reverse Trump’s public charge rule. He believes the rule runs counter to American values and the history of the nation.
Reversing Travel Bans
On Day One of his presidency, Biden intends to rescind Trump’s travel bans on travelers from 13 countries, most of them either majority-Muslim or African nations.
Skilled Workers
Biden supports reform of the H1-B system including increased alignment to the current workforce. Once reform is complete, he plans to expands the number of high-skilled visas.
Refugees
Biden supports raising the annual allotment of refugee admissions to 125 thousand from around 15 thousand under President Trump.
Mexico Border Wall
Biden plans to immediately stop diversion of US Defense funds for the border wall, effectively stopping its expansion. Trump will immediately prioritize reunification of "lost" children from asylum camps with their parents.

AlohaHI reacted to SusieQQQ in Any ir5 interview date yet ? Manila embassy
Only citizens can file for parents.

AlohaHI reacted to Just Paul in Any ir5 interview date yet ? Manila embassy
No point to interviewing before the ban "expires". It can always be extended. Or better yet cancelled.

They won’t schedule interviews until the ban is lifted.
