Dar es Salaam: CR1/IR1 visas issued

Immigrant visa: Spouse of U.S. citizen

Interview scheduling at Dar es Salaam

NVC is scheduling most CR1/IR1 interviews for cases that became documentarily complete in:

Spouses, children and parents of US citizens

October 2025

same as on Sep 23

Most immigrant visa applicants at Dar es Salaam are citizens of Tanzania, 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.

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.

about the same as the year before

Per month

9.0

For now, from our reading of the numbers: Dar es Salaam issued only 1 in January and February 2026, against about 11 a month from March to December 2025.

Visas issued show how busy the post is, not how long you will wait.
