My husband got to US on Wednesday, port of entry was stress free with no question asked. Thanks to everyone here for your help and advise. We are elated and glad he is here with me in the state.

Yes they are, I got and email from NVC on 10/4/20. I was ask to resubmit my wife's tax return doc and I resubmitted it the same day. So, am waiting to hear from them this week or next. 

Yh I know NVC and USCIS is still working but I was referring to the embassy. I know there are no interviews being held at the moment. But, is there still work going on other than interviews.

I really don't have an answer to this, but cases are being updated, which means they are working.

You can give it a shot! There's no harm in trying. I know a Nigerian citizen with a visa who was able to leave with one of the flights last month, his wife and kids are citizens and live in the US. Goodluck

You can try if the flights are not reserved for their citizens alone. Also note that the evacuation flights are not free (you have to pay for them). Also, you'll have to pay for flight to your final destination since their stop is in Washington.
