Havana advances employment-visa interviews by one month
The October update places documentarily complete employment cases in that month, while family-reunification categories retain their previous dates.
The U.S. Embassy in Havana advanced scheduling for certain employment-based immigrant visa interviews by one month, according to the State Department’s October 7, 2026, update.
The National Visa Center is scheduling employment interviews for cases that became documentarily complete in October 2026. In September, the reference for that category corresponded to the previous month.
Family categories showed no progress from September. Family-preference visas remain at October 2022, and immediate-relative cases for U.S. citizens remain at December 2025.
The published date indicates the point through which the consular post is scheduling interviews for documentarily complete cases; it does not guarantee that every applicant from that period will immediately receive an appointment.
