Dear Vietnamese families,

We understand you are seeing many worrying rumors on Facebook and TikTok about the US stopping F4 (siblings) and IR5 (parents of US citizens) visas. Please stay calm – these rumors are not true for Vietnamese applicants.

The truth (updated May 2026):

• The US paused immigrant visa issuance for nationals of 75 specific countries due to public charge concerns. Vietnam is NOT on this list.
• IR5 (Parents) and F4 (Siblings) for Vietnamese continue normally.
• F4 still has long backlogs (normal situation), but cases with old priority dates are moving forward.
• US Embassy in Hanoi and Consulate in Ho Chi Minh City continue processing family-based immigrant visas.

Our team at Truong Law Firm, PLLC specializes in helping Vietnamese families with US immigration. We handle everything from petition filing, document preparation, interview coaching, to tracking your case until approval. With accurate information and professional support, your family’s dream of reuniting in America remains achievable.
