Administrative Processing after Visa Approval at Interview

[Yen-Naah 1]

Hi. I am a newbie here. I had an interview with my family on the 18th and the CO said everything is fine and our visas are approved. It's been 7 days (5 working days) since the interview but my CEAC Status says Administrative Processing. 
Is this the normal process, is there anything I can do, anybody in the same situation?

This is completely normal 👍🏻

There is no set time line for how long this will take though, and no way to speed it up. Just a little longer wait!

 

The next status will be ‘Issued’.

Thanks. I am just worried because another lady I went with status says issued the very next day.

It’s normal. My parents were approved on 18th as well and Ceac changed to Administrative Processing after their interview but this morning it changed to issued.

Update. 

I emailed the embassy and got this response back. They did not mention that my case was under administrative processing but I guess this response is generic. All the same anybody knows what's next?

Did you get approved at the interview? 

Did they ask for any more documents?

My husband interview was 7/25 and his status is AP as of now even with receiving a verbal confirmation of approval from CO and no additional documents requested
