My wife was interviewed on December 22, 2016 for CR-1 visa at New Delhi, India. Her case was put on AP and since then there is not even update online about her case nor we heard anything. She was not asked to submit any documents. I recently wrote to US embassy in Delhi to inquire about her case wherein we are told that her case is continued to be on AP and don't know when processing would be completed. So its going to be 4 months now and not even one update online...

Seems like a long while to wait they usually say resloved in 90 days. I would see about getting your lawyer or congressman involved.

Hello all,

Does anyone else see this when checking green card status? I paid the immigrant fee on the 17th and my reciept number does work the only way I can check is through ELIS.

Status went from refused to ready to ap processing in the matter of a hour today is that the norm?

Ok thank you I need the stress relief so much. Your awesome thanks again.

Ok ty. How long before you got yours back? Does it mean that ap processing is over and now they are processsing the visa?

 sorry I miss read your question yes we did receive the 221G which I sent to you it wasn't blue it was white.

No I did not recieve a blue 221g they recieved our pp on Friday. What did you recieve a blue 221g for?

did it look like this? And how long after they requested pp did you recieve pp back? And did how soon did you see changes on the ceac website?

This usually means Administrative Processing is over and they are most probably going to issue the visa. I don't have experience with Mumbai consulate but I had this happen with Chennai Consulate and it took about 3 months for them to finish AP and issue the visa.

Did they keep your pp or request it later on?

Hello,

I have a question about the processing of visas in Mumbai. They recieved my husbands pp on Friday and the nvc said it is with officer for review. They requested his pp after he was in ap processing for almost 2 months. Has this happen to anyone in the forum before? Also, has does the procedure go once they recieve the pp? I very heard mumbai only processes visa on Tuesday and Wednesday is that true?

Thanks in advance.

After 5 months of AP, I received the following email from the embassy. They are asking me to submit my passport and an updated physical examination report (the previous one has expired). I don't know does it mean that the AP has been finished and they need my passport to paste the visa on it? Hoping to get your suggestion. BTW, they gave my passport back to me after my interview and I'm holding my passport now.

Dear applicants,

Under the section 221(g) of the immigration and nationality act, the consulate general is unable to issue you an immigrant visa at this time. If you have already submitted your passport to the consulate general, we will keep your passport with your file pending the insurance of your visa. Further consideration will be given to your visa application after you meet the following requirement(s):

Requested document(s):

1. For all applicants: please submit a passport (with at least 8 months validity) and two new visa photos taken within the past 6 months.

2. Please return to the panel physician for a new medical examination and medical report and then submit the medical report. Please do not mail your chest X-Ray.

3. Your medical report has expired. You will need to conduct a new one.

Please tell me the outcome in your case as the same thing is happening to my husband.

The only rational reason to ask for the passport is to print a visa in it. 

That's what I'm hoping I've seen people say they ask to do additional processing which makes no since as they have access to see if you ever traveled anywhere by flight.

I didn't get one nor do I know what your letter means, but I would assume them wanting his passport back is a good thing. 

I sure hope so thank you.

No we didn't get a letter like that. They told us that we need a joint sponsor on our interview. Everything was fine during the interview until the CO check my transcript saying we need a joint sponsor.  After we submitted that documents visa was issued and we picked up after 5 days

I pray that our case they asked for pp so maybe that's a good thing

If they want his passport back, I'd assume that be a good thing.

Did your 221game letter look like that?

My husband was put in ap processing after second interview almost 2 months later they now asking for pp?

Just now, Dharone17 said:

Yes they did they said we need a joint sponsor. We mailed it after we got the documents and they approved and issued the visa within 2 days then waited when it's ready to picked up it didn't take 10 days for us to receive the visa on hand 

DID your letter asking for docs look like this?

Once you submitted the documents that embassy requested , How long does  it take for them to process it? And issue the visa?

Did they give you a 221g that told you what docs they needed?

Hello,

My husbands 601 waiver was approved in December he had his 2nd interview for ir1 visa was jan.23 2017 which the officer said she needed more time to process his case and gave him a 221g and his passport back and didn't ask for any additional documents.  On March 7th 2017 we recieved another 221g asking him to please submit his passport. Has anyone had this happen? If so can someone please give me some insight on the situation? Attached below is the letter he recieved. 

Hi,

We filed 601 and 212 waivers in Oct 201the they got denied in feb.2016 because they say my husband had crimes he didn't. We filed a appeal on both and we received notice that they were both sustained and warranted that the favorable outweighed the unfavorable and that it was being send back to the originating office for completion. Today I got a case update that says case was reopened and we have sent you a reopening notice. I'm confused what does this mean they still have to look at the case again? I thought is was approved by the AAO? Please help!

Can I ask what happened with your process we used Lizz too and our 601 and 212 Appeals were approved also?

Can anyone tell me the steps after getting a 601 and 212 appeal approved by aao?

Can you please tell me what happened after you 601 and 212 were approved by the aao?

Is there anyone who has had a good waiver if so can you send me the names not very many that I talked to have been able to do them.

Yes same here I hear different stories from everyone so I figured I would ask other people who have through situation. I feel I will be better off sending the paperwork on my own because you can never get a straight answer. It's so very frustrating when families are forced apart and have to go through this. I hope all goes well for you and your family.

Jessica:

My lawyer said the same thing recently Last year, he was telling us that he would file the waiver as soon as we got an embassy interview apt. But now, he is saying we have to get a disapproval for entry and for
