Hi all.

i applied for a tourist visa B1 B2 in US embassy Islamabad on 16th June 2016, I was put in AP, till today I am still in AP, I have visited the US twice once in 2006 and then in 2009, In 2006 when I applied for a US visa I was put in administrative processing and then I was cleared after 8 months.

Now again I have been put in AP , do you think I have to wait for 8 months again.

Please people of Pakistan share your timelines that you got cleared from AP for a visit visa.

PS: being stuck in administrative processing is like delivering a baby , that gets stuck, it is painful and at the same time you do not know the outcome.last time the baby was born in 8 months...:)

It could be another 8 months (hopefully it won't be), or it could be longer. There are no set timelines for AP, they can take as long as they want. I've seen posts from some members here that were in AP for over a year.
