My fiance (female) from Iran was also interviewed in Ankara for a K1 visa 2 months ago (mid-May) and she got a pink sleep at the end. They took her passport and she had to wait in the hotel for 5 days to find out that they have everything they need and all the documents are complete, but they need additional processing time. US does not have an embassy in Iran so Iranians seeking a visa have to travel to Turkey, Armenia, or UAE to visit the US embassy there. It has been 2 months since the interview and the CEAC website has not updated her status and it just says "Administrative Processing". I have contacted Dept of State but they really dont give out a whole lot of information other than what the website already says. I wish there was a way to get up to date AP status updates. I read about people waiting for their AP for more than a year on this site and I cannot fathom how insensitively these cases are being handled. I am not saying everyone should get a visa. I understand the security issue and they do need to check everyone but at the same time, they have to bear in mind that 99% of legitimate applicants with no security threats and an approximate waiting time would help people like you and me plan their lives ahead. I know nobody listens....I am just venting. I am sure some of you feel the same way.
