Technical Glitch Cripples US Government Visa System by dridowu: 4:37pm On Jun 19, 2015
The Department of State's Bureau of Consular
Affairs is currently experiencing technical
problems with visa systems. This issue is not
specific to any particular country or visa
category. We apologize for the inconvenience
and are working urgently to correct the problem
and restore full operability. Passport applications
accepted overseas between May 26 and June 14,
2015, were also affected by technical problems.
If you applied for a U.S. passport overseas during
this time frame and have travel plans within the
next 10 business days, please consider
requesting an emergency passport at the U.S.
Embassy or Consulate at which you originally
applied. Information about how to apply for an
emergency passport is available here.
These systems issues are also impacting
processing of U.S. visas. We are currently unable
to print most immigrant and nonimmigrant visas
approved after June 8, 2015. In addition, U.S.
Embassies/Consulates are currently unable to
process new applications submitted on or after
June 9, 2015. Applicants with interview
appointments scheduled for this week, June
14-20, are asked to reschedule if they submitted
a DS-160 online application after June 9, 2015.

Appointments can be rescheduled by following
the instructions located
onwww.ustraveldocs.com/ng . Nonimmigrants
visa applicants who submitted their DS-160
online application prior to June 9, 2015, should
plan to attend their scheduled appointment.
Individuals with urgent travel should follow the
instructions for expedited emergency
appointment found on www.ustraveldocs.com/ng .
