I attended for the visa interview on 2nd march and i got administrative processing. On 21st march my status has been updated to submit my passport and I797 for issuance of visa. I submitted my documents through DX secure courier. The thing is i haven't received my passport yet it's still with embassy from 23rd march on wards dose any one have an idea how long it's gonna take to get my visa....

dips

I emailed to the US embassy they said still in processing it's been almost 40 days waiting for my passport and visa............

dips

I heard that they process in 7 to 10 working days but no update in my case........

Did you track the package to make sure it got to the embassy safely?

Did you try contacting the embassy to see how long it might take?

It probably takes some time to go from the mailroom to the officer's desk, then some time for the officer to get to it and issue the visa, then another week or two to deliver it back to you.

I doubt anyone here can give you any more of an idea than that.

That's usually true, unless you've been in AP... at which point, things happen when they happen.

Is there any particular reason you are in AP?

dips

i got reply from embassy like this............
We can confirm that the nonimmigrant visa unit has received the required documentation. No further action is required from you at this time. Embassy records show that your nonimmigrant visa application is subject to administrative processing, please be assured that as soon as we are able to proceed with your case, you will be notified.

on 18th of april.............

dips

no......... they gave me 221(g) white slip.........

Noorah101

So there's your answer. No one can predict how much longer it will take.

Rene

dips

hmm....... The thing is my passport with them and i have small doubt will they issue my visa or not......

Noorah101

Do you need your passport?
