Kuala Lumpur and the immigrant visa pause
No callbacks of any kind have been reported at this post since the cable. Last reported movement 2026-10-02.
A paused-country national's case had CEAC touches three times in September and on 1 October, then on 2 October received the same generic 'processing in order' email that Tirana and other posts sent that day. A Bangladeshi-passport spouse case interviewed in June has had no re-interview as of 6 October, and none is reported at this post. Malaysian passport holders are not subject to the pause.
