US EMBASSY UPDATE | Immigrant Visa Prioritization for Family, Interview Waivers, Emergencies
The Department of State released an update on how Embassies and Consulates are prioritizing immigrant visa applications. Consular appointments are scheduled using a tiered approach to triage immigrant visa applications and consular sections, where possible, are scheduling some appointments within all four priority tiers every month. The guiding principle on which we have based immigrant visa prioritization is that family reunification is a clear priority of the U.S. Government’s immigration policy, a priority is expressed in the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA). Recognizing the emergence of the COVID Delta variant and the continued demand for healthcare professionals during the pandemic, U.S. embassies and consulates were instructed that they may prioritize as emergencies on a case-by-case basis the immigrant visa cases of certain healthcare professionals who will work at a facility engaged in pandemic response.
