Well
Well, I dont think those listed countries folks will started getting Visa Revalidation or other immigration matters smoothly (like waiting period for Visa at consulate) within years or so... I bet things gonna get worse.
I remeber those days right after that horrible incident people were still getting visa. I abstain to apply thinking things will get better, lets wait. Lets wait. Even 2002 March when some folks were getting some folks were rejected, I thoght lets wait little more. It was a great mistake. I dont think this things gonna get better for US, it will get worse considering more upcoming war and stuff.
Now, me and my wife living apart. Cannot bring wife even though I have valid H1B, but dont have visa stamp in the passport. They are saying your wife wont be issued visa unless you have visa.
Things are very terrible now a days. It is happening for a group of people, not a written rule. Therefore, there will not be any propaganda that can eleminate those practices.
All we can do to try and watch what happen.
