OFFICIAL UPDATE:

Following our post yesterday, the U.S. State Department has officially announced a pause in immigrant visa processing for 75 countries, effective January 21, 2026.

What you need to know:

• This pause applies ONLY to Immigrant Visas (those seeking permanent residency).

• Non-immigrant visas—including tourist (B1/B2), student (F1), and business visas—are not affected by this specific announcement.

•If you have an immigrant visa interview scheduled, you should still attend. The State Department has confirmed that embassies will continue to schedule and conduct interviews.

HOWEVER, even if the interview goes perfectly, no immigrant visa will be issued or printed at this time.

Attention‼️

We are closely monitoring the news reports published today regarding a potential suspension of visa processing for 75 nations.

At this time, there has been no official memo or formal announcement released to the public by the U.S. State Department. Because the specifics of this reported policy—including the definitive list of affected countries and specific visa categories—have not been formally confirmed, we cannot yet provide concrete answers on how this may impact individual cases.

We will provide a detailed update as soon as official government guidance is published.
