Yes!!  Thank you!!

 

I immediately emailed the Embassy and got the following response:

"Good Day, 

 

Thank you for your email.  Embassy Kingston has not resumed K-1 processing.  We will contact you to schedule the K-1 appointment once we are able to do so and in the order received from NVC.  Please note we will have a significant backlog once we are able to resume K-1 processing.  Cases will be handled in the order received from NVC. Please know that your visa case is important to us and it will be processed as soon as it is feasible to do so.  We appreciate your patience in the meantime."

 

I suspect that they will not publicize if/when they resume K1 processing,  but I promise to scream them the rooftops!!

My packet was sent from the NVC on 4/6 - so I'm waiting nearly 5 months just for that interview date!

 

Crossing my fingers for everyone!

Check to see if your embassy is processing visas and which ones. If your results return 999 that indicates that they are still not processing that visa type. Your mileage may vary.

My fiance had her interview in March 2020, but she got a 221g that dragged out for months because of the quarantine in the Philippines. But she is on the plane coming here now!

Can you explain this a little better? I clicked on the link but where do I go from there and where will I see 999?

Scroll a little way down the page till you see the heading "Visa Appointment Wait Times". There you will be asked what the city of your embassy is.  Lima returns "temporally closed". Keep checking to see any changes.

On nationwide news today Jamaica said they would resume K1 visas in the coming weeks. I emailed them again to ask how soon since my fiance's medical will expire October and they said 

 

Thank you for your email.  The Consular Section is reviewing how and when we will process K-1 visas.  We will announce any future plans on our our website.  We are unable to determine at this time when that may be or how quickly we will be able to address cases. Please continue to monitor our website, and we look forward to handling your case when we are able.
