Naples and the immigrant visa pause
At least one applicant who is not a plaintiff has received a case-specific instruction here. Last reported movement 2026-10-09.
Not a pause post, but relayed from a social media post: a Thai national living in Italy, first interviewed 5 May under the pause, was emailed to redo the medical and given a second interview on 9 October. A Pakistani spouse interviewed in July has had no CEAC change or contact. Military-spouse cases are expedited (the 23 September IR1 went Issued 6 October). Everyone else, including 25 and 26 August and 16 September cancellations, has nothing after six weeks, and emails go unanswered.
