More delays for US visas

30 Jan 2019 - by Jade Kelmovitz

VISA companies canvassed

by TNW say securing

appointments for US visa

applications has been an

issue and that assisting

clients has become

increasingly difficult.

Visas and Passports

Unlimited has sent out

a notification, warning of

delays in the availability of

visa appointments. The first

available appointments for

Durban and Johannesburg

are the end of February the

visa company says. “No

slots are currently available

for Cape Town.”

A spokesperson from

Visa Express told TNW that

the US Consulate in Cape

Town said the issue was

temporary and was being

resolved. The Consulate

has advised applicants to

monitor the US Embassy

website (za.usembassy.

gov) for updates. However,

a note on the website

says: “Due to a lapse in

appropriations, website

updates will be limited until

full operations resume.”

The longest government

shutdown in US history, now

over 30 days, continues to

impact operations, causing

delays at airports and the

closure of national parks

and museums.
