Hi All,
 
Want to give an update:
 
Our case went into ADMINISTRATIVE PROCESSING on Aug 3rd after being in READY since July 30th.
Naturally we freaked out a bit because we know the Consulate has all the documentation needed to finalize the decision. Did a little investigation and found this on US Embassy site for Japan:
 
https://jp.usembassy.gov/visas/nonimmigrant-visas/visa-status-check/
 
This provides a thorough explanation of what each status could mean. After reviewing the above link we were able to calm down a bit because  based on the explanation ADMINISTRATIVE PROCESSING could mean the Visa has been approved and waiting to be issued.
 
Guess WHAT???
 
My husband Visa was issued TODAY!!!!!! (Aug 5th) 😃😃😃
 
We are so very happy after 6 yrs of an uphill battle fighting tooth and nail we are FINALLY done!

Thank you so very much! We are excited to have the opportunity to finally be united under one household.

From other's experience on this forum, "refused" does not always mean denied, it might mean in administrative processing.

Quick update:
Ny husband sent an email to the US Embassy on Wednesday 7/28. They responded today, Friday 7/30 and said they are finalizing the processing of our case. 

If less than a year  before your second interview/appointment no additional documents will be required. Anything after a year be prepared to submit updated documentation:
Police Report
Medical
Financials (W2 and tax  returns and transcripts)
 
You should also receive an email from Ghana Consulate on what is required for the interview/appointment
