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 2026-09-17.
Diversity visa applicants asked for a renewed medical with no second interview; interview letters going out for diversity cases; the post says September is out for others and it is reviewing diversity cases first. An applicant re-interviewed was told new procedures were coming the following week.
