Travel while waiting NVC and IL

[AMK2021 29]

Hi there, 

 

This site is so helpful! I was looking for general advice. I'm a citizen married and my husband is in Pakistan. We were looking to meet somewhere in between (Turkey, UK, Dubai, etc) for 2-3 weeks while waiting for IL. We are still at NVC stage and I have visited him in Pakistan a couple times but I know the backlog in Islamabad/ Pakistan is long. I saw that visiting another country can sometimes put people, men especially, in AP? Is that the case even if visiting with spouse? I just wanted some advice as I would like to avoid anything that could potentially delay timelines. He has never left Pakistan before either. 

 

Thanks!

It usually depends on the country the person visited. If a Pakistani man travels to Iran or Syria or North Korea, i would expect a very much scrutiny than if the same person travels to Dubai to be with his wife for some time.
