Immigrant visa cancellations begin in the Dominican Republic

The United States Department of State has implemented a global pause on immigrant visa applications for permanent residency. This administrative action has resulted in the automatic cancellation of scheduled visa interviews for applicants worldwide, including those residing in the Dominican Republic.

Affected individuals have begun receiving electronic notifications informing them that their previously scheduled appointments are no longer valid. The pause affects the processing of permanent residency requests, though no further details regarding the duration of the suspension or the specific criteria for rescheduling were provided in the initial reports.
