Interview wait times updated March 2026
What are the current visa interview wait times at Embassy Shenyang?
Category-by-category contrast. Students and exchange visitors (F, M, and J classifications) currently face a next-available wait of < 0.5 Month (8 days) at this post, category China applicants should plan academic start dates around. Employment-based applicants (H-1B, L-1, O-1, P, and Q) currently see a next-available wait of < 0.5 Month (8 days), which adds on top of USCIS I-129 processing time before a petition-based worker can actually schedule their consular interview. Crew and transit (C/D/C1D) applicants face < 0.5 Month at this location. Because the State Department updates these numbers monthly, they can shift materially between snapshots.

Visitor and employment appointment horizon
The published next-available B1/B2 and H/L/O/P/Q appointments at Embassy Shenyang sit within two weeks of one another on this snapshot. That is a useful scheduling comparison, but the categories remain separate queues and neither figure predicts a visa decision or later administrative processing.
