Unfortunately, we do not have any influence on the visa application process by the United States.  We sympathize with your situation and we are realizing that a large number of visa renewals and applications are taking much longer than expected because of a backlog of applications that grew during the pandemic. Many embassies were not open or processing these requests resulting in a longer wait time. May I suggest that you still put your application in and try for the 2026 NAB Show (April 19-22, 2026), or the 2026 NAB Show New York Show in October.
