No it’s difficult situation at this point. No visa slots available in 2026 . Fully booked until Nov 2027 . Do you have an appointment ?

To try ER you should first have a regular appointment. Once you get a regular appointment ( considering current trends you may get Dec 2027 + ) try to expedite it . Emergency is not always guaranteed, but make a strong case highlighting solid reasons with supporting personal & business documentation.

Extremely sorry to read any posts like this.

Unfortunately no slots till next year. You can't apply for an emergency appointment while being in the USA. Even to apply for an emergency appointment while you are in India, first you need to have an existing appointment.
Am sorry for your situation but it would be a tough call to make.

Tired of of the same old boring tomato marinara sauce? Try a roasted red pepper cream sauce!

Red bell peppers are roasted in the oven until sweet. It is then blended with caramelized onions, garlic, red pepper flakes, sun dried tomato paste, and cream into a silky, smooth and velvety sauce. Finish the sauce with a knob of butter and coat your pasta. Cavatappi works well here. Don’t forget to shave a little Pecorino Romano
