I am presently living in California. I am waiting for my EB-5 interview in Belize. I must go to Belize for my visa interview for my green card. But I am 4 months pregnant and it is high risk.
Is there any alternatives for me, like being able to do the visa interview here in the States?
I saw that they have also issued a travel advisory for Belize as well. What other option do I have without loosing my date or my visa on a whole? I am worried.

Find an EB-5 Visa Lawyer: Immigration AttorneyIf your petition is approved and you are in lawful status in the United States, you can apply to adjust your status in the United States.
