Islamabad CIS

[Laurel Scott]

Am I the last one to know that the Islamabad CIS office is shut down or is getting shut down?

Canuhandleit was sort of our resident expert on Islamabad and he has not been on for a while.

I don't remember anyone on this site mentioning this...

So you are the first to know.

Probably good riddance. I assume their 601 would now go to Rome??

When was the last time that office was staffed? And haven't all their waivers been forwarded to Rome? Is this a surprise? :D

[M&M]

I think there's do get sent to Rome... Didn't Neverending file there and it was sent to Rome and she's been waiting forever!

[canuhandleit]

If Islamabad immigration closes then how do they take care of interviews and such? just wondering

Canu- Where is your dad these days? How is your family holding up?

canu - the DHS office and consulate are separate entities. The DHS office which does the waivers and other USCIS (INS) functions, hasn't had an officer in ages, but the embassy (which is part of the Dept. of State, not DHS) grants visas and is running as usual (presumably). How is everything going?
