With lifting of Trump’s exec order and Guangzhou embassy resuming immigration visa processing, has anyone got an interview scheduled ? (My case still at NVC)

 

I also saw thread in this forum discussing about lawsuits, it seems to me that it could accelerate the timeline? What is it?

 

thank you

You are, likely, in the queue at NVC for your consulate.  Once your case reaches the front of the queue, they (NVC) will schedule the interview.  Patience is the key for all immigration matters.

While many of the proclamations have been lifted, the one that states if you have been in China in the prior 14 days you can not enter the US is alive and well.  That is the proclamation that many consulates (including Guangzhou) are using to not process K1 visas.  Given that Biden reimposed the 14 day restriction on the EU and added South Africa to the list of countries covered by the 14 day rule I do not see him lifting it anytime soon.  To the best of my knowledge the only K1 visa interviews in Guangzhou in the last 4 months have been Milligan plaintiffs, of which I am one.  My fiance had her interview on March 3rd and we are just waiting for the consulate to return her passport with the visa in it.

 

On a side note the Milligan attorneys are eyeing asking the judge in the case to make his ruling universal instead of just plaintiffs which is how the State Dept. interpreted his order.

thanks! I am on. Greencard and my visa is on FB-2A visa which is an immigration visa. 
 

my impression is that the 14 days rule restricts non-immigration visa(K1) but not immigration visa(FB-2a)?

With proclamation 10014 being lifted I believe you are right
