Manooo

Alhamdulillah my visa has been issued today. Thankyou for all the support and prayers may allah swt make this process easy to everyone Ameen. 
 

Where did you hear that? The form started around May 2017, so there is no question of 3-4 years. Please do not spread fear among the people. There are many reasons for someone to be kept on the AP, usually for incomplete documents or inconveniencing evidences such fake marriages etc. However the DS5535 has only one purpose: that is to screen applicants for any link with terrorism or potential security risks. There are many who received their visas withing 10-13 months. However since the beginning of this year we have seen slow in the process initially because of the government shut down. I personally has been waiting since 15 month for my wife to get cleared. Her interview was in December 2107.
So please let us not to spread false information. No one knows how long this may take, no one in the state department or the consulates talk about that, so any information is merely a guess! I wish everyone the BEST!!!

Excuse me but what qualifies you to say that this person would get a visa by may 2020??
I find this judgment call of yours very interesting! 

No one here has the right to judge what will happen. No one should share their information here such as what is your occupation etc. This group is simply a support group!!!

Good point!!!! We here just to share our experience with each other, not to judge or investigate any one. but to support each other on this very long process that resulted in our families separations. 

Goodness! You really are full of yourself! 
I agree with everyone's view that we are here to support each other and share our experience! 

I am really curious, what is your occupation? What visa did you apply for? From where (i am ssuming Islamabad)? What is your name?  When did you have your interview? And when did you receive the ds? Share your experience please.

These are unfair questions. No one should answer such personal questions on this open forum!! I hope we are respectful of each other privacy!
