In AP after interview. Got email from islamabad embassy

[Lkhan123 3]

Hi Friends,

So my fiance was given a white 221g with administrative processing marked on it. His passport was also kept. I emailed the Islamabad embassy asking them why he wasnt issued a visa. I got a reply back from them today. This is the reply:Dear Sir/Madam, Our records indicate that this case is in its final review. Please feel free to check back with our office after four weeks. So guys should i consider this a good sign? They didnt write the usual its in AP so just wait for it response. Plz give any feedback you guys might have!

What does the 221(g) say? It can be for a variety of reasons including documents that you need to send in or that the embassy is waiting for the result of your fiance's medical, so you need to read the 221(g). Also, it's pretty common with AP for additional security checks in certain countries, Pakistan being one of them. The fact that they kept the passport and they say it's in final reviews are good signs.

The 221g does not say anything. No documents are asked for or additional proof of the relationship. The only thing on there is a tick mark next to admistrative processing required. The CO did not say anything to my fiance except that your passport will be available for pick up at an american express near you in two to three weeks. Do you think this is a positive sign?

K1 visas require Ap in Islamabad. It is normal procedure now after the California incident. But keeping passport is good

I had my interview on 9 Feb. I am CR-1. The CO said that I would get my passport within 3 weeks. He did not said anything like congrats or its approved. When my wife asked him he said yes it is approved. I am really confused whats going on. He did not gave me any slip too

HI,

My wife was also given a White 221(g) on February 17th at US Consulate, Islamabad.

The notice says,"your visa is denied under provisions of immigration and nationality act. your case requires additional administrative processing."

Did your wife get the same white 221(g) ???

The CO kept her passport and told my wife to check the status online.

I am a US Citizen. I provide all required documents to USCIS and NVC. I don't know why are they doing this after everything is approved by USCIS and NVC in United States.

Please share your experience and update if you get the visa.

Thank you
