K1 Refusal under 221b with DS 5535 form London Embassy

[Melody & Connor 0]

Hi!

 

so my fiancé had his visa interview on the 24th of September and was told he was approved pending medical. However a few days later our status went from refused - Administrative back to refused and this morning 5th of October, we got an email requesting us to fill out the DS 5535 form for additional information. I’m very sad and upset because we booked flights and made plans to be home thinking we were approved and the visa was on its way. I’m curious to know how long this will take to have our visa issued out to us.

 

my fiancé Connor doesn’t have crazy criminal background but does have lots of travel to Europe and Turkey and one 5 day trip to Russia which I think might be the cause 

 

If anyone as any information on timeline or processing times for this in London or Europe, please let me know!
