All normal so far. They are processing your application. Just be patient.

Profile pic - Rainbow Tower of the Hilton Hawaiian Village - Waikiki, Honolulu, Hawaii.

Why this for the profile pic?  Often in movies and on TV when they show Hawaii they show this beach/view. So, instead of doing Kauai or some other locale, we decided to do here, so that whenever some show shows Hawaii and this view, we will see where we were married.

All cases go through administrative processing.  Just watch for the status to change to "Issued".  Have a good trip to the US.

Thanks 

The Embassy has sent me an email that the visa is issued and I should contact DHL for delivery but on CEAC, the status says administrative processing (not the refused AP).

Does it sound positive?
