That’s the thing. I assumed they would have my biometrics since I already gave it in 2017 (since you can’t get a study permit without one) and answered yes to that question. Then later realized that they didn’t have it (don’t know what happened to the one I gave in 2017) and had to give it...

I received my study permit in 2017 after applying from India( gave biometrics at VFS bangalore). I recently applied for visit visa from US and had to give biometrics again. I thought biometrics was valid for 10yrs?

Just to make sure we're talking about the same thing. By financial proof. I mean finances for the trip and not financial ties to homeland. Were you talking about that too?

Hi I read your earlier post regarding CAN+ processing- where you did have to provide financial proof. So do they ask for financial proof regardless of whether you qualify for CAN+ processing? I have travel history to Canada in the past 10 years and have a non immigrant US visa. I was asked for...

From what I've seen theyll send you a list of documents you would have to take to the appointment once they approve your emergency request.

Status is issued as of now.

Theres no trouble applying outside your home country. It just depends on which US consulate and in which country you're planning to apply from as they are all working at different capacities. They might ask for proof of your residence status in that country (worker/student/ pr). Im not sure...

As of now it still says application received. Might take a while for it to be updated. My interview just got over an hour ago.

Just to clarify. They didnt stamp it yet. But she said it was approved. Ill get the passport back in 5 to 10 days.

H4 visa approved on October 15th emergency appointment at Halifax. Officer asked for i797,i94, H1b copy and marriage certificate for supporting documents. She had to make notes on my file regarding the national interest exception(quoting specific paras of the proclamation) so that the officer at...

You can try to email the consulate directly to request an emergency appointment. That would be your best bet. Yes, usually you need to have an existing appointment to request an expedite. So try emailing them directly and let them know if you are part of the exception to the presidential...

Edit I heard back from them and they approved my emergency appointment request for the 15th October.

Oh I’m glad you got it approved. I asked for Oct 1st appointment. Still haven’t heard anything. And no I can’t find any other appointment dates.

No luck and I dont think itll happen either. The wait continues.

I’m trying for an emergency appointment because 1) They clearly state that they’re only doing emergency appointments at the moment 2) Then they say H1B/H4 holders should only request appointments if they believe they are part of the exception to the proclamation This makes me think that what...
