Ashgabat: F2B visas issued

Immigrant visa: Unmarried son or daughter (21 or older) of lawful permanent resident, and their children

Interview scheduling at Ashgabat

NVC is scheduling most F2B interviews for cases that became documentarily complete in:

All three categories: immediate relatives, family preference and employment

Current

the update’s month, Oct 2026

Most immigrant visa applicants at Ashgabat are citizens of Turkmenistan, and their immigrant visas are suspended. They can still get an interview, but may not get a visa. Dual nationals who apply with the passport of a country not covered are an exception.

For now, from our reading of the numbers: Ashgabat issued only 46 family or employment immigrant visas from Mar 2025 to Feb 2026, so “current” may mean it schedules few of these interviews, or none.

Compare with the month NVC emailed you that your case was documentarily complete.

What this month means

It is not a wait time: it is the month NVC is scheduling most interviews for now, and it can move backwards. “Current” means NVC is already scheduling cases from the update’s month; it can also mean the post schedules none, so check the embassy’s own website (usembassy.gov). Documentarily complete: NVC has accepted all your documents.

Family preference and employment cases also need a current priority date in the Visa Bulletin.
