Hong Kong: EB-3 visas issued

Immigrant visa: Skilled worker or professional, and their spouse and children

Interview scheduling at Hong Kong

NVC is scheduling most EB-3 interviews for cases that became documentarily complete in:

All three categories: immediate relatives, family preference and employment

July 2026

same as on Sep 23

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.
