If you have passport at the embassy waiting for visa to be issued kindly visit the dhl office to check if your passport is ready.I was at the dhl office and I was told 40 were brought last week Wednesday and another set will be coming tomorrow.

Thank you very much for this information. I even travelled to Lagos to check last month I only meant to maintenance guy who told me that the DHL has been closed since March 2nd. 

 

Please was your CEAC status changed? Did you receive any email to come pick up? My passport has been with the embassy since 28th of February 2020.

 

Please kindly advise.

So please what were you told by the DHL staff when you got there to check if your visa was ready? They didn't ask you to present an email received for pick up? Did they enter your case ID to check if it was there? 

 

I'm sorry if I'm asking too much question just that I'm going to be traveling down so I want to know my chances.

He actually asked if I got email to come pick up and I said no. He only ask for my name and passport number to check the system from the list of 40 they brought.

Hello,

I'm a Syrian citizen who was born in Saudi Arabia (so My state of chargeability is Saudi Arabia), and my wife is a US citizen, we have been married for more than 2 years and we are residing in Istanbul Turkey, our case was approved by the USCIS and the NVC 2.5 months ago, and now we are in the line waiting for our interview to be scheduled at the embassy in Ankara - Turkey.

As I understand that I'll be subjected to the travel ban because of my citizenship, so we need to prepare a waiver package to propose it during the interview.

 

My wife's temporary resident permit will be expired within 2 months and it can't be renewed, and she also needs to travel to the US as soon as she can to attend the internship at the hospital to graduate, and she does not want to travel without me.

 

Also, I’m sponsoring my wife because she doesn’t work, ant this point is very clear in our case since she was added me as a joint sponsor.

 

My questions are:
1- What should we include in the waiver package?

2- Have any one done that before?

3- Does our status eligible to file an expedite request for our interview?

4- Since My state of chargeability is Saudi Arabia, does that support our case anyhow?

5- Since my wife is in the medical filed, does that support our case anyhow? because as I see the medical field workers are having a special attention those days.

 

Finally, I just wanted to say that I’m confused because I’m about to get the Turkish citizenship after a few months and once I get it I’ll be a dual citizen who is exempted of the travel ban, so I’m afraid if we filed for expedite we may stuck in the waiver process for unknown time and if we postponed our interview until I become a dual citizen my wife will be overstayed in turkey.
 

Please advise.
