Hello,

 

I would really appreciate if any employment based immigrant visa applicants waiting for interview in Abu Dhabi would share their DQ date. I am trying to have an idea of how long we may wait in order to estimate

our processing time.

 

Thank you

No one really cannot tell when is the estimated time for waiting.  I, myself was DQed (EB-3) since Oct 26, 2020 and received a standard email every 90-days (Mar & June 2021) saying 'that my case is still in NVC and awaiting for interview schedule...' Please see latest visa issuance in AUH during May.

I am also EB3 Category. DQ on 25th Jan 2021. Please could you message if there have been any further updates on your IL. Also my residence visa in UAE is now getting cancelled, hence would you know the process to put forward an expedited request ? Thanks in advance

Hi there,

I am EB Dqed on Dec 2020, received standard email twice that case is awaiting interview appointment. Are you a TCN or UAE national?

I think that matters as i heard somewhere in these forums that priority is given to local citizens.
