U.S. consulates in India have effectively run out of H-1B visa interview slots, with many applicants now facing delays until 2027 for visa stamping. Immigration attorneys report a significant slowdown in processing and increased scrutiny compared to previous administrations.
Key Details:
- Earliest available H-1B visa interview slots: 2027
- No new visa interview slots reported in the last 50 days
- Increased vetting and scrutiny contributing to delays
- Third-country stamping options are no longer available
The current situation leaves many H-1B workers unable to travel without the risk of being stranded abroad, creating uncertainty for employers and hindering mobility within the workforce.
