lady customer service in embassy told me to call embassy again after 2weeks;( im from the PHil! a friend agent said expect it 2nd week of February hopefully wont take that long anymore:..( and i dont know how do embassy differenciate an expedited case to normal processing? mine is on expedited request thts why nvc forwarded my case to embassy but major documents lost by NVC on its way to embassy, and this delayed the issuance of my visa and has bn on administrative processing since early Dec2014;(! we requested to be expedited n granted but i dont know why embassy asked me to redo some docs. since nvc told my hubby all forwarded to embassy;( no wants to be responsible of lost docs, does this mean an applicant documents will be put not in just one packet? and got lost as easy as that:( ridiculous!!

My clearance certificate reached them on 20th.. It took 2 months to get that! And like you my case was expedited before... Just the dates have been changing on status update of AP.. Let me set myself for feb then.. But its sooo stressing..! All the best to us.. But I will contact them if I do not hear anything by next wednesday.

AP still in my status, u r right my friend i set my time for February too, we must stl think positive okay;))! despite of this longjourbey just to get with our loved ones,, so urs has bn expedited too? so did embassy ask u to redo ur international pol clearance? me id submitted already b4 to NVC but they lost it;( but lets smile a bit atlast embassy got urs too;), but the only changes i can see in ceac update is the status update hahahhahaha hope we both be issued next week,, so stressing but God make it happen;)! patience,,

No one can say when you will have your visa. Each case is different. Just have to have patience a word that many of have been told to have during this process.

I seriously doubt any documents were lost between NVC and USEM. What is more likely is you didn't provide the documents required in the embassy instructions letter, even if you already submitted them to NVC you are required to submit new documents to USEM - they have their own requirements.

You are required to present all the documents listed in the instructions letter during the interview (doesn't matter that you sent them to NVC before)

to GREENbaum u mean, nvc has same requirments with The embassy? so applicant still requrired to redo all the requirements already with NVC? my hubby and my agency called NVC stressing out nvc did ALL forwarded my documents to the embassy and nothing left in their hand that was nvc clearly told us;(! its happening lol, that documents have been lost or misplaced hope u read the topic here in visajourney applicants complaining same things,, but how about mine has been requested for expedite and granted by nvc how can u explain that? so this mean the word expedited for health reason is useless? my husband needs a significant surgery and his doctor n surgeon provided nvc request letters for my case to be expedited coz my hubby is living alone and he is advised not to lifting moves during the recovery;(! so how can embassy consider the urgent reason to expedite? his surgery was scheduled by his surgeon last part of Dec2014 but bcoz of this delay it was postponed coz he needs me to take care of him;( sad so sad:..(( told him to just do but he replied" if i die i die i will wait dor you to get here b4 i do my surgery" and this made me so stress and crazy worried here about his health condition and lately hes complaining chest pain due im sure caused by extreme stress;( hopefully next week God need your help;(! my hubby is sick! Again thanks for all ur comments guys,,
