REFUSED CEAC STATUS

[Sammyd90 4]

Hello everyone,

 

I have a quick question here, my dads visa application for IR5 visa was in administrative processing for almost two years until the embassy finally asked for his passport, two new photos, medical exam and a new police certificate. After two weeks which happened to be this morning, I saw ceac status as REFUSED which made me panic. 
 

would this status alter or any thoughts please?

 

thank you!!!

"Refused" does not necessarily mean visa denial.  It usually means temporary refusal pending completion of administrative processing.  No need to panic.  Just need to wait some more.

No, it's not a bug.  And no, there's no such guarantee of email response within 24 hours.

And the poster you responded to is based in Jordan, not Montenegro, so how is that relevant? Some consulates take days or even weeks to respond to people.

The posters profile is Jordan, not Serbia, and anyway refused is much more likely to be AP than a “bug”.

Simple:

2 years ago they were using AP for administrrative processing 

and now they use Refused while cases goes thru this process

so,  when entered your case site to update it,  they changed the coding
