  They are now forced to make a decision based on the data in front of them.  If a namecheck hasn't returned they will deny the visa.  That is their only option at this point, waiting is no longer an option.

This will not be over quickly. You will not enjoy this.

They will most likelt issue the visa within 2 months. I know a lawyer who has filed 300 of these. 99 percent of the time the case dosent go to trial and Visa is issued. Good luck and keep us posted.

My husband has been in Administrative Processing since June 2018. We too are thinking on writ of mandamus.... do you really have to be in Administrative Processing for 1 year from interview to try?

Way to go on spreading fear and wrong information... Absolutely false and contrary to what many lawyers told me.

 The writ forces a decision , which will be made based of what is in hand.  It does not force a positive decision only a decision.  If immigration does not yet have the data to approve it will force a denial  

  One thing to be said about people and a lot of immigration lawyers     A fool and his money are soon parted .

This will not be over quickly. You will not enjoy this.

My wife wasted 3500$ for writ of mandamus. So I suggest other people not to waste their money. Lawyers will fool you to sell their services. I think their is a zero percent success rate , it's better to keep waiting and be in touch with senator and embassy.
