Frankfurt and the immigrant visa pause
No callbacks of any kind have been reported at this post since the cable. Last reported movement 2026-09-28.
On 28 September a case refused on nationality grounds at a 2 July interview received the first substantive reply in three months: the petitioner's email had been received and cases are being reviewed in the order in which they were refused. An inquiry answered 24 September came with a CEAC update. A cancelled 31 August interview was rescheduled to 8 September. A diversity visa interview cancelled on 28 August has no date.
Every post, side by side: immigrant visa pause status by embassy.
