Hi all,

 

Any help/suggestions/guidance would be greatly appreciated.

 

I had my interview in Montreal back on Nov 28, I was told that I was approved and that I'd receive my Passport & Visa in 2-3 weeks. It's been over 5 weeks now and still nothing. Checked CEAC and status is "Administrative Processing".

 

I'm curious, after your interview is complete. What is your status on the https://ais.usvisa-info.com site?

Should it be updated to "Completed" ? My current status shows "Appointment".

 

I can't think of anything that would cause delay except the Passport # on the US Visa site was not updated. 

Not sure whether I needed to update my passport number on the US Visa site or not. (After searching on VJ, many say that I did not need to and to bring both new and old passport to interview - which I did and was all fine).

 

We just completed my daughter's CRBA last week along with her US Passport.. Seems like she might receive her passport before me ! They said it would take 2 wks.

 

I really don't know what to do, or whom I can contact.

 

I tried the number below the white form that was given to me about how to pick up my Visa, but they did not have any information. 

 

Help please?

 

Thanks in advanced.

Hopefully she gets her passport before you.  There is nothing you can do if you are in AP.  Im sorry but you can only wait.  If it gets too far along (like your medical may expire) then the USC can contact their senator and ombudsman. 

Is the USC living in the USA?
