Technological Systems Issue

JUNE 24, 2015

Visa Systems Issues

• The Bureau of Consular Affairs reports that 50 posts, representing nearly three-quarters (73 percent) of our nonimmigrant visa demand worldwide, are now online and issuing visas.

• Posts overseas issued more than 60,000 visas on June 23. Mission China alone issued nearly 25,000 visas.

• Posts overseas have issued more than 150,000 non-immigrant visas since June 9. For context, if systems had been operating normally, posts would have issued approximately 450,000 visas during the June 9-23 timeframe. We expect to close this gap rapidly over the next few days.

• We will continue to bring additional posts online until connectivity with all posts is restored. All posts worldwide are now scheduling interviews with applicants, including those who applied after the systems problems began on June 9.

• We deeply regret the inconvenience to travelers who are waiting for visas.

• We continue to post updates to our website, travel.state.gov.

InshaAllah, It will be solved soon. keep praying! . Let me ask you guys, I am in karachi, I heard that only one hospital can handle the us medicals in karachi, do you have any updated info about medicals in karachi?

i did my medical from lahore wilcare and it was quiet expensive they charged me 10000pkr...but gave reports on the same day....one of friend did medical from karachi and it was significantly cheaper but hospital was very crowded and they first took blood and xrays and then vaccination after 10 days....and then may be got report after 10 days not sure.,.....as u have ur interview letter u should immediately contact the medical center bcz may be it will took 20 days to get the reports.. and tell them ur interview date they will suggest medical date for u.....

Did you guys receive a letter at the consulate after your interview with instructions on paying the green card fee?

Fiance had his interview on June 22nd and was also approved! They told him that he would be, hopefully, getting his visa in two weeks.

Visa Systems Issues

• The Bureau of Consular Affairs reports that 165 posts, representing more than 85 percent of our nonimmigrant visa demand worldwide, are now online and issuing visas.
• Posts overseas issued more than 82,000 visas on June 24.
  
• Posts overseas have issued more than 238,000 non-immigrant visas this week. For context, if systems had been operating normally, posts would have issued approximately 540,000 visas since the outage started.

My status still says Ready, but it's early morning in Islamabad right now so it'll probably start changing for us once the embassy opens later today! Everyone check your statuses soon and see if Islamabad was reconnected! (I'll scream if it still isn't up)

Man, the Kabul embassy is like your username!!!!!! Loading.....Loading.....Loading......

No updates on the site, and I suspect that it may be one of the last posts to get connected. It took six weeks from the time our petition arrived to the compound for it to be delivered to the consulate. That's how slow the mail takes in Kabul, so I don't know if the system will update in between the power coming on and off!!! LOL!
