Hong Kong’s I53 visa backlog

Child of I51

Before 2020 March, Hong Kong issued 3.9 I53 visas per month on average. If we naively assume that the number of visa applications didn’t change during COVID, they are now 26.7 months behind expectations.

Hey, I’m Bence Nagy and I made this website (source code on GitHub) while waiting for my CR-1 visa.

If you found it useful, consider getting me a coffee. Who knows, maybe your donation will end up on my I‑864.

Good luck to you all!
