The U.S. visa system has hit a sudden standstill. No new H-1B stamping dates are available for the rest of the year, and thousands of Indian professionals now face interview timelines stretching to 2027. Across Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai, Hyderabad, and Kolkata, regular visa slots have vanished, disrupting workers, families, and U.S. employers alike.
Immigration experts warn relief is unlikely soon. The U.S. State Department lists petition-based visa wait times as “not available” at major Indian consulates. Applicants with early-2025 interviews report abrupt deferrals to April or May 2027, turning months of waiting into years of uncertainty overnight.
