Re: L1 visa interview timescales
I applied for L1A last week, and system showed to 'Dropbox' with DX courier as I have stayed previously in US f for good amount on H1B. Good history of travelling, so was confident L1A will be approved after current stay of couple of years in UK.
Got status as ‘Refused’ and trying to understand is the reasonthey want me to come for 'in-person' interview ? Did anyone else faced the similar issue.
Trying to gauge what went wrong.
Still waiting on passport thus don’t know why exactly why it was denied.

Wish I had come to this page earlier.
Visa appointment system has an issue, all L1A Blanket need in-person appointment and should not use 'Dropbox'.
221(g) will be issued, and then you need to make appointment for interview.

Just wanted to give info in case anyone has an interview soon. Mine was to extend my existing L1A. My appointment was March 22nd, all went fine but I have not heard anything since (2 weeks). Still says administrative processing when i check my DS160 status. So if anyone is planning to come over and do the same, I would book a very flexible flight!

Update from my L1A - interview was over in 5 minutes but they did need my wife there (L2 visa) whereas the previous emails stated she was not required. Passport sent back with the visa in 2 days!

What was the lead time to actually get the interview booked? State Dept website says 75 days at the moment.
