The U.S. Department of State has announced that, effective November 1, 2025, the National Visa Center (NVC) will only schedule immigrant visa (Green Card) interviews in an applicant’s country of residence or, if requested, country of nationality.
Existing immigrant visa appointments scheduled through the NVC will generally remain in place and will not be automatically canceled or rescheduled based on this new policy.
If you have questions about your Green Card interview location, contact your MU legal team for assistance.

Green Card Interviews to be Scheduled in Country of Residence

#1Editing a commentThis makes sense. The only way to do a reliable background check on a visa applicant is to do it in his own country. When it is done in other places, you can't even be sure that the alien is giving you his right name and where he is from. Cynical? Perhaps. But fraud is a recognized problem with immigration benefit applications.
