The U.S. Embassy does not issue visas temporarily
The U.S. State Department has a problem with the issuance of visas, according to the Embassy to Azerbaijan. Reason for the suspension is technical fault in the passport and visa system of the USA.
“The U.S. Department of State is currently experiencing technical problems with its visa system, which are affecting global operations. This issue is worldwide and is not specific to any particular country or visa category. We recognize and deeply regret the inconvenience to travelers. We are doing everything possible to return passports with visas as soon as we are able to complete processing. We regret that we are currently unable to predict how long the delay will be.
Applicants who interviewed with the U.S. Embassy/Consulate after July 21 and would like their passports returned to them without the U.S. visa may contact consularbaku@state.gov with their name and passport number.
Applicants who have an urgent need to travel to the United States may contact consularbaku@state.gov with their name, passport number, and nature of the emergency. Please understand that only true emergencies of an extraordinary humanitarian nature can be considered for exceptional handling.
We appreciate your patience as we work to resolve this matter and apologize for the inconvenience,’ the statement says. -16D04-
