Kampala does not handle immigrant visas.  If you live in Uganda, your spouse visa case will be processed at the US consulate in Nairobi.  You will need to travel there for your visa interview.

Not entirely the case. I'm a foreign national living in Uganda and my interview location has apparently been set to take place in kampala. I'm wondering why that is the case anyway because I've long been aware that kampala does not conduct immigrant visa interviews.

It seems Kampala has already issued 1 spouse visa this year.  Maybe yours will be the 2nd?

Interesting. Any idea when this took place? It would indeed be nice to be the 2nd in the queue.

That one IR1 visa was issued in June 2022.  No published data on how many spouse visa cases are in queue at Kampala since then.

Could be largely due to the fact that immigrant visas are rarely processed from kampala. Immense thanks for the info @chancy. I appreciate it.
