USCIS can still review your I‑730 internally during the suspension because a federal hold allows officers to keep processing the file up to the point of making a final decision, which means your RFE response, background checks, and eligibility review can all continue even though they cannot approve or deny the case until the Executive Order is lifted, while the Department of State has fully paused follow‑to‑join refugee processing under the order so interviews will not be scheduled right now, and once the suspension ends cases that already completed RFEs and vetting generally move faster since they do not restart, but there is currently no official timeline from USCIS or the Department of State for when decisions or interviews will resume.
