Haiti - NOTICE : Issuance of U.S. Visas and Passports very disturbed Haiti 03/08/2014 10:41:26 The Consular Affairs Bureau of the State Department explains : "Since July 20, our team has worked to restore operations to full capacity. On July 23, the CCD was brought back online with limited capacity. The Department of State is working with Oracle and Microsoft to implement system changes aimed at optimizing performance and addressing ongoing performance issues. We are telling visa applicants to expect delays as we process pending cases. We remain able to quickly process emergency cases to completion. More than 50% of pending nonimmigrant visas cases are being printed, with the goal of prioritizing those pending the longest. In addition, we are prioritizing immigrant visa and adoption cases, nonimmigrant medical emergencies, and humanitarian cases" Regarding the case of students the Bureau specified "We understand the importance to international students and exchange visitors, their families, and their U.S. host institutions of timely visa issuance in order to facilitate travel and to ensure all students and exchange visitors may begin their programs on time. We are committed to issuing visas to all qualified students and exchange visitors. Student and exchange visitor visa applicants should submit their applications well in advance of expected travel dates. We will make every effort to ensure timely visa issuance." Situation in Haiti : Friday, Aaron Burge, Vice-Consul of the Embassy of the United States in Haiti explained that this global problem also affects Haiti where only one third of visas could be printed and delays are also recorded in the process of printing and delivery of passports. He hopes to produce a similar amount next week... The Vice-Consul recalled that these technical problems do not affect the visa application process which remain the same, that appointments are always maintained at scheduled dates and documents will be issued as soon as possible. It takes at least 2 weeks to get a visa renewal.
