Amman and the immigrant visa pause
At least one applicant who is not a plaintiff has received a case-specific instruction here. Last reported movement 2026-10-12.
Relayed on 12 October from a local intermediary: the embassy is open and interviewing immigrant cases in small numbers each day, taking cancelled first interviews before refusals. Applicants in the thread say nearly everyone contacted gets a re-interview only, with three or four visas actually issued and the rest in administrative processing for about two weeks; an email to the scheduling vendor around 7 October was told officers are training for public charge. A non-plaintiff spouse case first interviewed in February had a five-minute second interview in late September: passport kept, no 221(g), CEAC moved from Refused to Ready. First interviews cancelled for 5 and 25 March were still without dates on 12 October. 25 October: a spousal case interviewed April 2026 and held under the pause is still waiting. 6 November: applicants report no immigrant visa rescheduling since the pause was lifted; commenters relay reduced staffing tied to the regional conflict and say immigrant interviews were cancelled again while tourist visas continue (second-hand, unverified). Second-hand, 6 November: applicants first interviewed on 1 February are being re-interviewed and 2 February interviewees are expected from the week of 9 November; only 3-5 officers are said to be on these cases. 12 November: an emailed question drew an automatic reply that all immigrant visa services are cancelled until further notice, then a staff answer a day later. An IR1 documentarily qualified in January and another from October 2025 report no contact; a rumour of a large batch of new appointments next week is unverified.
