Patience is 🔑

@Patience is Key okay that’s good. Fingers crossed for my husband’s.

@jakelake I hope so too. Hopefully after the first they send out the new dates.

That's not fair at all for what haiti embassy are doing to us i have been waiting for almost 2 years just to interview my husband for his visa my God hmmm

Hopefully the situation in Haiti, particularly in Port-au-prince, is under control by January 1st.
It is absolutely ridiculous how a bunch of gangs are controlling a country!

To all my Haitian people after a long road since DQ May 28th,2019 I finally received the interview letter for February 8th

I agree, this is why we need to stay on top of things. Later this month when the visa issuances for the month of April are released I expect to see more immediate relative (IR1, IR2, K1, & K2)  visas issued than the previous month. And that trend should continue as we progress through this year. Embassy in Haiti will use all excuses possible  from covid to insecurity to issue minimal immigrant  visas to Haitians. We as U.S. citizen petitioners are our family member's only advocates. The  embassy in Haiti needs to know we are privy to what is going on. Meanwhile the neighboring country is issuing twice as much immigrant visas although they have more cases of covid. Hence why I advise those waiting 18 months or longer for their beneficiaries interview to be scheduled to be proactive. Call the Haiti  embassy tell them you aware of the prioritization for immediate relatives of U.S. citizens to get their interviews scheduled by the direction of the department of state. Embassy in Haiti needs to get the ball rolling, the backlog will not clear with just 140 IR1 visas issued a month. The backlog for interviews in Haiti dates back to 2019! We're practically in the middle 2021! Very ridiculous. The DR did 347 in March, I hate to compare but I have to. 

I just read this early this morning and I swear Haiti acts as if they don't have to following rules and it's all embassies 

I will definitely keep everyone updated!! Everything @Jacques'son stated is facts! CR1 will automatically fall into IR1 after 2 years of marriage. Thanks again for the information. I normally go every 2 months to Haiti to visit my husband, but I'm currently almost 8months pregnant, with our first baby and can't travel anymore. So I'm really just ready for him to get here and for this process to be over. Talk to you guys soon! Hopefully with an interview date🙏🏾

You're welcome, please let us know how it goes. I was documentarily qualified in July 2020 so I'm a long way from interview. However, for anyone DQ'd (for Haiti) in mid to late 2019 they should have gotten an interview already, gotten an interview letter, or be close to an interview. CR1/IR1 are the priority along with other categories where the petitioner is a U.S. citizen. Non immigrant visa Categories and non-citizen petitioners should not get interviews before backlog of CR1/IR1 is cleared. We U.S. citizens qualified to vote and going through this immigration process with our love ones are part of the reason this biden administration is in place, they need to be  held accountable. Their campaign promoted and promised a better and fair immigration system, this is their chance to make that a reality.

Great information! Thank you! I'm IR1 too. We've been married over 3years, and waiting on a interview for almost 20 months. I've never tried calling the embassy of haiti only NVC, and they always tell me their waiting on Haiti to schedule interviews 🙃So I will definitely try calling the embassy now. Thanks again for that information.

The visa issuances for the month of March 2021 have been released. Embassy in Haiti issued 141 IR1 visas and only 2 CR1.  In my opinion if they double that amount of interviews going forward they could clear the backlog sooner. I read that all embassies and consulates have been directed to prioritize IR1, IR2, CR1, CR2, and K1. I suggest that anyone waiting for interview in Haiti and DQ'd from July 2019 and August 2019 to contact the embassy and emphasize their awareness that their visa category is of high prioritization based on information released by the state department. Also, emphasize that you are DQ'd from July or August 2019. Family of U.S citizens are supposed to be getting their interviews scheduled first. Embassy of Haiti needs to know that we are aware of what is supposed to be getting done, otherwise they will drag their feet.

That is a long wait. Something needs to be done about this. They should have a time frame for this process. It is really unfair to watch people done within a year while others have to wait forever. 

I saw that petition too but I didn’t understand the why or the how? It is hard to see the K1’s going through and I want to be happy for them, and should be, but it seems like we are punished for getting married. 

Are they really getting her out? The biden administration needs to know of her unfair treatment to Haitian families waiting for visa interviews. There's no reason why they shouldn't be interviewing DQ's from at least mid 2020. CR1/ IR1 should be top priority at the embassy. They're still on DQ's from 2019 thats absolutely insane. Waiting 2 years for an interview is ridiculous. If they do 200 CR1/IR1 interviews each month at the embassy they will be all caught up in no time. The simple fact is that they don't want to. 

DQ December 9th 2019 and nothing as of now. Spouse visa. Sent 2 expedited requests on ground of emotional distress as a nurse and having a 2 year old, that Sinson lady denied them,  talking about it wouldn't be fair to other applicants and covid. I honestly wanted to let her know what s not being fair is me seeing you on social media almost every week posing for pictures with people less than 2 feet away and having you using covid as a perfect cover up to keeping families apart🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️. Thank God that they shipping her away soon💃💃💃. That lady is doing every other business/job in haiti except her actual job🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️.

Dq sept 2019 and still waiting....Ir1,(spouse)....started the whole process dec 2018😴😴😴😴😴 

Any IR1 people transferring their cases to DR? I’m so torn. Haiti is a catastrophe.

DQ may 2020 for me . 

So they look at it case by case? We are not going to cancel our pending visa or anything but wondering if this might be an option in the meantime. When my husband gets his immigrant visa he already has a job lined up here so I thought the same job might be able to offer him a work visa while we wait for him to be able to move. The embassy in Haiti is crazy, they are actually prioritizing non immigrant visa interviews right now ahead of immigrant ones which isn’t really fair, but 🤷🏻‍♀️. Some people have been approved and waiting for interview scheduled for 4 years! While others are getting temporary visas much faster.
