Hi everyone,
I have been a U.S. Citizen for a couple years now, and am pregnant with my first child due in March.
This will be the first grandchild on my side of the family and my mom was planning on coming to help and meet her grandchild in May or June 2023. She lives in Brazil, had a visitor visa and was here visiting in January 2019.
It turns out her visitor visa expired in November 2022 and the earliest she could schedule the interview is June 2024 where she lives, or if traveling to another city for consulate, October 2023.
is there any way to expedite, get the visa sooner or apply for some kind of extension since she did have a valid one until recently?
is it allowed to apply for the visa in a different country other than your home country?
