Relax...you didn't do anything wrong. You have probably been placed on AP. You should get your Visa in 60 or more days once your final name check comes back clean.

This is common for them to keep the passport but only if they are going to issue a visa which you get in a week time but to me he said 1to 2 months which making me worried

Thank you very much for the replay it really help but were they not suppose to give me a papper indicating that my case in going through AP

[JimVaPhuong 4,863]

The AP is not because he's male and a Muslim. It's because he's a male from Pakistan. The AP would still have been likely if he'd been a male Christian from Pakistan. It would have been less likely if he were a male Muslim from Indonesia or Malaysia. Being a Muslim is not a potential inadmissibility. Being a member of a terrorist organization is. Being from certain countries increases the potential that he might be a member of a terrorist organization. That's why the CO specifically asked about Afghanistan. An Afghan who migrated to Pakistan would have a higher chance of being a member of a terrorist organization than an Afghan (by race) born and raised in Pakistan. Virtually every Afghan Taliban member currently living in northwest Pakistan fits the former description.

To the OP: Go to the consulate and request that your passport be returned so that you can renew your visa in Ireland.
