A: It sounds like your family immigration case has been in limbo for quite a while, and I understand how frustrating this can be. Given that your case has been pending since 2016 and involves a hold at the consular office in Ethiopia, it’s crucial to gather all your documentation. Ensure you have your case number, invoice number, and receipt numbers at hand.

First, contact the consular office in Ethiopia where your case is held. Inquire about the current status and any specific reasons for the delay. Be clear and concise in your communication, providing all necessary details to help them locate your case quickly.

Additionally, it may be beneficial to reach out to the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) or the National Visa Center (NVC) for further information. Sometimes, cases can be delayed due to administrative processing or missing information. Following up with both the consular office and relevant U.S. immigration authorities can provide you with the latest updates and potential steps to move forward.
