Well ive been checking ceac for an update. This morning, it was still in "Ready" and last update was the 15th. I tried checking it again this afternoon, still says "Ready" but last update changed to the 24th, thursday. The day before my fiance went to the embassy! I think their systems are now updating those who got affected by the glitch. spark of hope people! :)

Mine still on ISSUED but still i cant track my passport status... Huhuhu... USEM response is to check it later date or time... Once case updated it means they have printed visa already...

I hope so... God help us...

Embassy called us this morning after our status changed to ISSUED. They wanted us to pick our visas from the embassy. Saves us trouble, really. Congrats to everyone who had theirs issued as well! :)

Jlsuter82,

Hi can i ask something?

What would your status says below your " issued" status?

Can you tell me exactly what was your status day?

Mine visa status "issued" but it says my visa is in final processing... What does it mean?

It happened to my fiancées aunt but that was 28yrs ago.

We have the same message, Gemini18. It was a surprise to us when they called. It was probably because I went to the Embassy last Friday and was able to talk to an actual human being! Someone who doesn't give generic responses. I told him about my fiancées medical situation and assured me that they will prioritize our visa once everything is up and running.

...or maybe they just had enough of our emails and phone calls that they wanted us to stop ASAP. Lol
