US Advises Stranded Green Card Holders to Leave Afghanistan to go to US Embassy in Neighboring Countries
[NationalReview] "I explained his situation — a U.S. legal permanent resident since 2017, and his wife and kids’ visa interview interrupted by closing of Kabul embassy," my reader said. "Her first response was to read to me, verbatim, the text of the auto-reply emails that we have been receiving. ’The U.S. embassy in Kabul is closed, blah, blah, blah...’ I let her do that on the off chance that there might be new information. There wasn’t."When the woman on the hotline had finished repeating the old, and not terribly helpful information, my reader asked: "How do we get him and his family out of Afghanistan?" My reader says the State Department hotline operator’s advice was to leave Afghanistan, contact any of the neighboring country U.S. embassies, travel to that embassy, finish the interview process, get the visas, and then buy tickets and fly to the United States.
