Ambassador Wells will also call on Finance Minister Asad Umar, he added.
Qureshi visited the US for 10 days in September-October, where he held meetings with numerous important leaders and think tanks in the US, as well as the Pakistani diaspora.
Of bilateral relations with the US and matters of mutual interest, Qureshi had said they had made "significant progress". US officials had made critical comments about Pakistan in the past, he had said, adding that over the past year, Islamabad was "bombarded with criticism".
But, there had been a "visible change in how the US conducted talks this time", he had commented. US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo was "ready to listen" to what Pakistan had to stay, especially after his visit to Islamabad last month.
