Guayaquil and the immigrant visa pause
No callbacks of any kind have been reported at this post since the cable.
Not a pause post; affected by the worldwide suspension. A 221(g) case still reads Refused with its last CEAC update on 30 September and the post does not answer emails or calls; a family case given a 221(g) for a household member's I-864A sent the papers around 18 to 20 August and saw a CEAC touch on 5 October with no second interview; an IR1 heard nothing by 7 October. A chat group of about thirty Ecuadorian applicants reports that none has been contacted (22 October). Interviews for 24 and 31 August were cancelled with as little as 20 hours of notice.
