Uganda Update

On April 15, 2010, the United States Department of State issued a statement clarifying the requirements to be granted an IR4 visa to bring a child to the US under a legal guardianship. If a family has met the outlined qualifications for an IR4 legal guardianship visa, it can be assumed that the Consul will resume IR4 visa issuance in Uganda. No families have yet received an IR4 visa after this announcement; however no families have been denied after this announcement. When a family receives an IR4 immigrant visa, we can be sure that the issues have been completely resolved.
