The official Subhumans web site has announced cancelations to at least the first five dates on their upcoming tour. Date htat have been cancelled include the 20th in Chicago through the 24th in Detroit. Here's their statement:

OK, the unthinkable has happened. Due to an understaffed US immigration dept and increased security regulations, they've been unable to process our visas on time for the tour, despite the applications being on theirr desk way back in July, so it looks like AT LEAST the first five shows are off, though I'm sure theyll go ahead with the other bands, UNSEEN, CAUSTIC CHRIST, and SEVEN CROWNS who are all fantastic, so please go along anyway. As soon as we get our appointment through for our fingerprinting, eye-scans, and vetting at the US embassy in London we can rebook our plane tickets (no refund on the old ones) and finally get on with the tour.

To any of you thinking we should just come over without visas, as soon as they tap in our passport numbers they see we haven't had our visas issued and send us home and won't let us back for five years minimum, and possibly won't ever let us back in so no more tours in the US ever…..etc etc. so not a very clever thing to try. Sorry, and fingers crossed that we get there soon, keep checking here for news…..
