TheNational Visa Center has been issuing erroneous letters indicating thatimmigrant visa applications will be terminated because neither the applicantsnor their attorneys have contacted the NVC within one year of notification ofthe availability of a visa. Theseletters are often erroneous because applicants and their attorneys havecontacted the NVC during the prior one year. It appears that the emailed letters were sent by the NVC during the lastweek of July 2015. The NVC is aware oftheir mistake and is taking steps to correct the erroneous letters. A similar issue arose in November 2014.
Ifyou have received one of these emails, MU Law advises you to contact the NVC tomake sure that they do not close your immigrant visa application.
TheNVC has the right to ordinarily close applications under INA §203(g) forfailure to contact the NVC within one year of notification of the availabilityof a visa.
