Which visa type are these interviews for? Curious if interview delays are this long for spousal sponsorships (US citizen sponsoring a wife in pakistan)

These are for CR1/IR1 visa types which is for us citizens sponsoring their spouses.

Yes. They are sending ILs once a month anytime from the 15th to around a week before the month ends. Can't say how many letters but last month they covered DQ's from June 23 to August 13.

Hello Guys I saw a post on Facebook group. Can you please confirm if it's true. Has anyone done this?

 

Hello, 
What’s that means please !!!

IMPORTANT:
 
If your visa petition is currently processing at the National Visa Center, do not let more than one year pass without contacting NVC. If a period of one year passes from the last date of contact (by telephone, mail, or e-mail) with NVC, all submitted fees and documents expire. If this occurs, the fees must be paid again and documents must be resubmitted in order to continue the immigration process.

This is how is used to be before the pandemic. Now because of the huge backlog, they’ve extended their fee validity to September 2022.
