Our DQ date is also December 2022! I have been following DQ dates and corresponding IL dates (mostly from the Pak USA Immigration FB page), and it seems to me that they are covering about two months' worth of cases every month. If they keep up at this pace, then they should arrive at December 2022 in about 7 months worth of time? Someone correct me if my math is wrong. Right now they are at October 2021 DQ, giving interview in August.
But at the same time, that doesn't really make sense, because I checked the statistics from the official DoS website of how many IR1/CR1 visa issuances there have been every month since the past two years for Islamabad, and they have consistently been between 50-400, averaging about 150 per month, with no speed up in recent months.
So this makes me very puzzled. If they have been going at this pace for a long time, which it seems they have been, then it's unusual to have a 24 month waiting period after DQ.
Anyone with any insight please chip in!
