I am in the same boat and feel exactly as you do. I was pregnant as well and recently gave birth without my love here due to the long wait in AP & it pains me that we’re stuck in the dark of this

Unfortunately, a visa is not really approved until it is issued......sorry.

My case still under administrative processing since 21st jan, i sent an email to the embassy after 2 months, and i got this

"Thank you for your message. We regret to inform you that the case is still under administrative processing. We will contact you once it’s done."

 

Now it's almost three months of AP, I assume next thing i can do is to contact a Congressperson, but can you tell me how long should I wait until i do so, because i read I can be neglected by the Congressperson if i emailed him during the "normal" AP time, 

Thank you

Congressperson will be told the same thing, in AP.

Hey everyone

 
I hope you are doing great!, Well, I had my K1 interview yesterday in the US Embassy Algiers,Algeria, the whole process was smooth, not too many applicants, the staff was very friendly, the embassy officer asked me usual question :
What is your fiancé's name?
How long have you been together?
How did you meet?
Where did you meet in person?
How many days you spent together and where?
How did your relationship became romantic?
What do you love about him?
What does he do for living?
Can you list his family memebers and where do they live?
Does he live alone?
 
And then he told me "Congratulations! Your visa has been approved" I was very happy and felt a mountain was off of my back, then he told me i will be back with you, he went for about 10 mins, when he came back he gave me a a form to fill that contains my informations such us 
Name
Address
Siblings and their date of birth
Employers (name, address and employement date)
My emails
My social media accounts
 Told me to fill it and give it back to him
After i did, he gave me a white slip (221g) and told me my case needs some administrative processing and he gave me back my passport and told me we will email you when we are done and ask you to send us your passport,
I left the embassy heart broken, waiting for (god's know how long) they email me... What made me feel sad is because they gave me back my passport. And i am more confused because he approved my application at first, so can you please tell me if you know cases like this or what do you think about it?imageproxy.php?img=&key=ea9668e88603f7d4imageproxy.php?img=&key=ea9668e88603f7d4imageproxy.php?img=&key=ea9668e88603f7d4
