"The Bureau of Consular Affairs of the State Department again experiencing technical difficulties with passport and visa systems abroad [...] The Embassy is fully aware of the inconvenience this outage causes the applicants. The State Department is working hard to correct the problem and restore the effective functioning of the systems.

A hardware failure on June 9 halted the flow of biometric clearance requests from posts to the Consular Consolidated Database (CCD). Individuals who submitted online applications or were interviewed for visas on or after June 9 may experience a delay in the processing.

There is no evidence the problem is cyber security related. We are working urgently to correct the problem and expect the system to be fully operational again soon. This is not the same issue as last year," says the official note.
