Hello! Any update from anyone on here. We are reaching 11 months in AP without any updates. 

No update without email inquiry that I sent them ten days ago and they replied me on 20th July and date got changed on ceac after that as well.. It's been 10 months and 4 days since my interview.. I am just so hopeless now.. Sometimes want to get disappeared.. I have nothing to do but waiting for this visa.. My whole life my whole future depends on this visa... Jab take ye nahi aata kuch nahi hoskta...its like I am terribly wasting my life

Thanks for email address.

Its a long story. Case got rejected by many courts because the incompetency of the lawyer then my dad changed his lawyer and finally got approval from higher court. 

 

Oh okayy I got it

This is the inquiry form through which i contacted them thrice but in vain.

https://pk.usembassy.gov/visas/immigrant-visa-inquiries/

 

If you have used other email address than this one, then give that address to me so i can also use it.

Its Pak92info@state.gov 

Do mention your case number, name, intrview date and visa category in the email text... Okay I will look into this congressmen thing.. But honestly, I don't think anything can make them approve our visas.. Administrative processing is a waiting game...why your father took so long for his asylum approval?

2 hours ago, Mirza Ali said:

Yes he got. I think after getting green card one can contact congressman.

How do you sent them emails? Through their inquiry form? What did they reply? They did not reply me even once.

Our case updated on fridays every time.

And usually after a month it is updated.

Did not your mom get help from her lawyer? Can a lawyer do anything in such case?

I send them email to their address.. I don't know about inquiry form..if your case gets updated frequently then its a good sign.. My status does not get updated unless I send them any inquiry and lawyer said he cannot do anything now to expedite the processing ..we just have to wait

I sent 3 emails to embassy through their inquiry form but received no reply. Yesterday i wrote them a letter. 

Have you sent email to them? 

There is another option, inquiry through congressman. Have you tried it? 

I sent them many emails... They replied to few of them. Only USA nationals can approach congressmen. My mom recently received Green card.. Have your father got his green card after asylum approval?

8 hours ago, Mirza Ali said:

He is there since 2001. Applied after arrival.but it took 16 years to approve.

We are not minor. But unmarried children are eligibal under child protection act bcz his case was pending in court. 

When your mother got in US?

Why CO put you in AP?

OmG...  I pray for quick response to your visa.. My mother went to USA in 2013 and applied asylum in the same year.. But it took 4 years to approve. She got approved in 2017. CO approved my visa at the time of interview and asked me to pick passport in 4 days... He didn't tell me anything else. But after that case status changed to AP.

29 minutes ago, Mirza Ali said:

Yes.

He got asylum in oct 2016.applied For us on jan 17. Approved on nov 17.

Interview march 18.

What about you?

Ok..When he applied his asylum? And since when he is in USA? All of you are minor children? My mother got asylum in January 2017 and applied for me in march 2017.. I got approved in June 2017 and interview was on 20 Sep 2017... Everything was quick but after interview I have got no news and It's been ten months since interview

Dear members!

i have been following all your comments since December 2017.

And have received guidance from VJ throughout the month..

just a brief description for the new comers!

my parents went through an interview 3rd of Jan 2018 At Islamabad.

My father has to submit Ds 5535..

and got his visa in 30 days after submitting Ds 5535.

while my mom was still in Ap.

She hasn’t got any questionarre nor got any request for ducoments.

today after 5 and Half month later she got her visa.

My understanding is US embassies are unpredictable.

you can’t say when ?

Ds takes 1 month to 12 months ( never know)

please stay calm and email them every now and then.

My mom visa was issued in 5+ months without any reason for AP...

and my father visa was issued in A month even he has to go through DS5535.

thanks for assistance..

May you get good news soon...

fingers crossed

Congrats to you n your mother💗

Hi guys. After 8 months and 3 weeks of waiting The Embassy sent me an email notifying me for my remedical. I just want to ask the embassy still has my passport, can I do the medical without it? Please answer me. Thank you

You live in Pakistan? If yes...yes you can do medical without passport but with its colored photocopy. As one of the members in this forum did this and got his visa after that. Please tell me did u give your interview in Islamabad Pakistan? My interview was on 20th september 2017 in Islamabad embassy. It's been 8 months and 3 weeks since then as well.

Just now, ISL said:

No update at all.thts so frustrating but no option other than to wait. Any update at ur end?

No... Its really frustrating and irritating. Want to cry all time now. Such a useless waiting game. We don't know when its going to end. Koi umeed nazar nahi arahi. 

On 4/25/2018 at 11:54 AM, ISL said:

no update. same as yours status. i got questionnaire and i replied them back in the last week of septmeber right away. my medical is expired too. no idea when they will ask. as i keep going through the candidates response hear. the estimation is that CO takes almost a year to get back and sometimes more. if we apply same formula then its from sept 2017-sept 2018. prayers for all who going through this hard time. stay in touch if you hear something

Heyy ISL.. Did you hear something from embassy? Or any update on ceac?

Shazyyo , if you remember I have been on this forum for last 5 months..

today my mom got a call after 5 months in AP..

she is being asked wether she is ready to go. She said yes and was told to receive passport in 3 days.

Now I am not sure wether they are sending passport for medical or sending her visa.

her medical is going to expire in 20 days...

If they asked her about her intention to go to USA right away before the medical expires then they would be sending her visa definitely in 3 days and she has to leave in within 10-15 days. Lets see what happens but the good news is that they contacted your mother.  Good luck
