On March 16, a day before her visa appointment, the consulate shut down due to coronavirus restrictions. Eight days later her mother passed away. Dixit is one of nearly 1,000 people in India trapped in similar situations who joined a private group on the messaging app Telegram.

But while the proclamation exempts spouses and children of U.S. citizens, it is silent on parents of children who are U.S. citizens.
