US Petitioners¡¯ Access to the Consular Section

Dear CFL Members,

 

We noticed a recent posting that incorrectly described how immigrant visa petitioners may attempt to access the Consulate¡¯s office.

 

Please be advised that the Immigrant Visa unit strictly follows State Department guidance to ensure the same level of access is offered to the public in an efficient and orderly manner, with no special privileges or special channels for immigrant visa petitioners. Additionally, our office follows strict security procedures to ensure the safety of our staff and premises.

 

The Immigrant Visa Section, as a courtesy to U.S. citizen petitioners who have questions regarding the immigrant visa process, has a ¡°petitioner hour¡± on Monday afternoons in which procedural questions can be answered. This is the ONLY venue for in-person meetings to discuss immigrant visa cases with consular personnel. To attend the petitioner hour, please enter through the main consulate entrance by 2 p.m.

 

If you try to enter the Consulate through the entrance described in the previous post, you will be denied entry and asked to leave immediately by security personnel. Please be aware that the Bureau of Diplomatic Security treats attempts to gain unauthorized access to U.S. diplomatic facilities abroad as serious security threats, and will take appropriate action in response to such threats.

 

Please refer to our website http://guangzhou.usembassy-china.org.cn/contactiv.html for more information for attending the petitioner hour.

 

Thank you for your understanding. If there are further questions, please contact us using the web form on our website.

 

U.S. Consulate Guangzhou, China
