US Immigration from Kenya

My spouse and I are still waiting. We were DQ'd in April '2024. We've been waiting years in this process since we got married. Anyone have any updates on how long Nairobi Kenya US embassy Consular is taking to interview immediate relative cases?

Will owing taxes back to the IRS result in a Visa Rejection, or if I make enough to be able to support my Fianc I should be fine.

Ok so here's the deal folks. According to CEAC, my fiance's application is marked as READY with the case last updated March 14 2024.

I've done some research (which confused me further) and have found that some are saying we need to wait for an appointment letter, and others are saying just schedule it anyways without it. Embassy is in Nairobi and she's a Kenyan national, has never lived outside Kenya etc. Pretty cut and dry.

Here's my questions:

1. Do we absolutely need this golden ticket of a letter?

2. If we DON'T, can we just schedule the appointment and proceed with the necessary documents etc?

3. How much longer should we wait before trying to get ahold of someone at the embassy for some kind of update?

4. Will I (the petitioner) receive the letter for the appointment, or will she?

Thanks for any assistance!

Anyone else DQ'ed at NVC early this year and you're waiting for your interview date at the Nairobi Consulate?

All of our documents were "Accepted" in like 7 days after uploading.

Sent an inquiry to NVC after 90 days and was told in a canned response that we are in the queue and it is fifo (first in first out). 4 months being DQ'ed and no word.

Anyone else held up at NVC heading to Nairobi or anywhere else?

Hi all,

My daughter was traveling back from Kenya with British Airways. She has an I-551 stamp in her passport. The officer who stamped it had asked her not to use her expired green card and extension anymore as this had been replaced by the stamp. She traveled through Heathrow to Nairobi with the same documents with no issue, but a few days ago in Nairobi, BA personnel refused to check her in, claiming that the stamp is a wet stamp and is not acceptable in Britain. We are really at a loss on how to proceed, other than to buy a new ticket on a different airline (money we can't really spare). My son had traveled through Denmark and France in December with the same stamp with no issue at all. Does anyone know anything about wet stamp or why she cannot travel through the UK yet the USCIS said she could work and travel using this stamp? Any suggestion on how to resolve this is welcome. Thanks

PS someone in another forum said they were denied boarding to the US with the stamp and were deported back to Kenya. They had to use a different airline altogether.
