Spouse appears for interview while pregnant

[JBoss 12]

Assalamoalaikum,

I would like to know if Islamabad consulate would delay my spouse's visa if they find out she is 1-3 months pregnant? Would they ask her to give birth in Pakistan and then come for interview again? Or would they let her come to US and give birth here? I am a US Citizen and I filled for CR1. Her case has been approved by USCIS and left NVC. It's sitting in Islamabad consulate for scheduling.

Thanks

It will be interesting to see if they put her into A P because of the possible affect on the timing of the birth of the baby.

Can u kindly tell me how long the nvc took to process your spouse's case? And in how many days they forwarded it to the consulate?

I don't think they will delay granting her a visa. Infact now they should approve her sooner because of her medical condition

My case took 408 days. I hope they don't delay her case but I haven't ever seen one case that didn't go into AP from that country. They don't care about her medical condition.

Please take the time to post the outcome of the interview as it may help others in the future.

The embassy doesn't have a reason to intentionally delay her visa because of pregnancy. If a USC's child is born abroad, he is eligible to receive US citizenship. You would have to file a CRBA (more work for them) and possibly do a DNA test. From what you have posted, it sounds like there is a good chance she will already be in the US before the due date. If she is 1-3 months pregnant right now and it takes 1 more month to schedule her interview, then you have room for 4-6 months of AP before she shouldn't be flying on a plane anymore (about 4 weeks before the due date) Starting at 28 weeks most airlines want to see a doctor's note saying she is OK to fly. The embassy will not speed up her processing due to her pregnancy either, but I think you have a enough time.

i have seen cases speed up because of pregnancy. if everything else is alright they wont make her wait at all they believe its better that wife is with her husband during this time.

Can you contact those people and have them explain exactly what took place? .

I know a friend of mine who didn't have to go through AP.

She was issued a visa within two days and she is from the same country.
