Hi All - I am currently on an L1-A visa and I am hoping to apply for my wife's L2 visa end of March. I gather that this isn't a popular visa category and haven't seen a lot of posts on the forums. I would love to get some guidance please.
The US embassy's website states "The U.S. Embassy in Islamabad has resumed limited immigrant and nonimmigrant visa interviews. The Consulate General in Karachi has resumed limited processing of nonimmigrant visas." I have two clarification questions please:
1. What is the distinction here between 'visa interview' and 'visa processing'? Does the above statement mean that Islamabad is entertaining interviews right now for non-immigrant visas but they are not currently processing them? Therefore, is it better to apply through the Karachi Consulate who seem to be processing at least a limited number of visas?
2. Is anyone able to please advise on the current L2 visa processing timelines in Karachi and Islamabad?
