Administrative Processing

[ISLPK 1]

Hi everybody, I had an immigrant visa interview at Islamabad US embassy in November 2017 along with my spouse and kids, since then our case is under administrative processing and it's being updated on frequent basis but don't know how much time it 'll take to finalize. I just want to ask, has anyone recently got a US immigrant visa in Pakistan? if yes, how long it took to finalize the case?

I found this timeline.

My husband got approved on the 1st of March for a spousal visa. The visa was issued on March 12th and is being processed for delivery now.

Congratulations scarlett262004!!!!! Good to know about your hubby's spousal visa. The didn't take much time in your husband's case, however; in our case they might take more than six months as five months have already been passed and case is still under administrative processing.

Thank you! And I’m sorry you are stuck in AP. I hope you get your approvals soon. It’s hard being away from your loved ones.

At the time of interview, i was handed over a white paper stating that I need to submit a joint sponsor, however; once i sought clarification from embassy few days after my interview regarding provision of new year tax transcripts instead of a joint sponsor, they were agreed and asked me to submit the new year tax transcripts which i submitted by the mid of February 2018. I haven noticed that my case is being updated on regular basis as it is under AP so let see what happens.....

Did u ask embassy to review after interview or they asked for new year tax transcripts by themselves? When u saw ur case last updated at ceas? Sometimes this ap takes less time but it all vary case to case..

Yes, i asked them by myself as to whether the joint sponsor is mandatory or i can provide the coming year's tax transcripts instead of a joint sponsor? wherein i was guided by the embassy to provide the coming year's tax transcripts. My case was last updated couple of days ago. What about yourself? did you also get the white paper? if yes what was the reason or objection?
