it was the same case with my sister, after interview on 8 the august CO gave her 221 g for tax transcript of recent year, but her status was refused, latter after two weeks submitted documents but status was still refused, on 10 the October her status changed from refused to ready and today again status is changed to administrative processing.

There are alot of chances that her status might change into issued tomorrow.

Greetings people, My case is been in AP since 12th December 2018 , usually after that my case has been updated once every month , but in Mid July me and my spouse decided to contact the Senator , but the embassy respond the same thing to him , but as they updated my case on 31st July last time the same day Senator send us the response , since than my case has not been updated , I waited 2 months as its mentioned in US embassy sites to wait before sending any inquiries but since than I have sent 3 Inquiries to them and they haven't replied to them , my question Is it normal that Embassy sometimes does not respond to inquiries ? 

They are replying to few people but it’s happening to many people, even I’ve sent almost three inquiries on which instead of replying they just updated the case date on one inquiries and for rest of two inquiries they didn’t even updated the case status date.

even i sent inquiry via ustraveldocs and no reply till date.

i had the similar experience, for F4 category me and my wife appeared for an interview on 6 August, after the interview office gave us 221 (g) stating that upload recent tax return and questionnaire on ceac websit and send to us thourgh either courier fax or email. on 20 august we received questionnaire. we sent both questionnaire and tax return on august 25 through email. One week latter we received an email from that instead of tax return send us tax transcript. Two days ago we sent tax transcript, we case is AP right from the first day, but good thing our case is updated regularly. Yes the quickest way and easiest way to send docuemnt is by email. 

Did you sent your documents on 

support-pakistan@ustraveldocs.com?

4 times case updates, last one is 16th September, then now silent, if they update in your case it will be good, but one thing i would tell you that you are lucky you did not get the DS-5535 it could takeS from 6 months to 1 year. do you have updates in your case?

 

No updates as of now just one update on 20 august that too when I emailed them and they just updated the date without even replying.

Dear Agha,

 

I am also in the same situation, my interview held on 6th august, till that day status is still REFUSED, same they ask for Joint Sponsor which i submitted on 1st September, if you want to make sure Embassy received your documents than i give you the number which belongs to embassy customer service which tell you that Embassy received the documents on the particular date,but you need to follow the instructions over the phone which is Quite simple  

 

Here is the number Call +92 21-111-234-111.

 

kindly just tell me visa officer marked on 2nd Option on 221g which is(additional A.p) required? just let me know 

Thanks for the number i guess its karachi embassy’s number,

yes second option on 221g is marked only. 
how many times they’ve updated your case? 

Interview was on 26 July at Islamabad embassy, all went well but they needed latest IRS transcripts so translator handed me 221g and said that you have to follow instructions on this paper to submit/upload documents on ceac and you will also receive an additional questionnaire. 
1) I haven’t received any questionnaire till date(which people says is a good thing).

2) interviewer asked to submit documents on ceac while following the instructions on document and on document instructions were to submit documents via courier/pickup point.

3)we have two cspa in this case and I’ve read it’s mandatory to aquire visa within one year of visa being available and our visa was current in January 2019.

4) status on ceac shows REFUSED instead of administrative processing some says it’s good some says its not when i called nvc they said your status is administrative processing. 
5) submitted documents on 28 july and sent two inquiries that if they’ve received documents or not but no reply. 
6) on 221g its mentioned that contact after 2 months for your case status which i did and they didn’t replied.

anyone else in the same boat as of me? 
what is the direct email of Islamabad embassy for inquiry instead of that inquiry form? 
any suggestions from seniors?

My sister she had her interview on 23rd Aug she got 221g white slip with nothing checked and she was told to submit tax transcripts and W2 on CEAC website which we did the same day. After 4 days we also submitted the hard copies through AEG travel services. Sent an email to embassy but no replay but case updated after 5 working days. Status is still "Refused" on CEAC website. Not sure how long will it take for them to review the documents and change the status to "Issued" i will send another email in next two weeks to see how things are going. 

Why our status is refused instead of Administrative processing? Same happened to me interview was on 26 july, they are not even replying to mails

Ok, brother, I will let you know

On 9/28/2019 at 9:35 AM, Syeda Hassan said:

What is that for ?? Can u explain a lil bit

this can be for various reasons,but its mainly because applicant failed to convince the interviewer by any mean like missing documents,forged documents, false statements, background check it could be anything that interviewer choose to deny your visa and puts you on administrative processing until or unless they are satisfied over their reservations on you.

Hiii.. i wanted to ask what means if they marked the 1st option on white slip..

Visa denial under section 212

Hi all, currently going through the K1 process to be with my amazing fiancé forever. 

 

I have my LDN number and invoice number. However it won’t let me check the current status. Whenever I put the security passcode in it always says it doesn’t match. 

 

Does anybody have any clue on how on how I can check the status on this as I need to book the medical and visa appointment. 

 

Attached pic to show what I mean.

 

Thanks in advance.

Everyone is facing same issue from  almost 2 days now, most probably is some website server issue.

I emailed last week its been six working days but no reply from embassy as of now.

I had my embassy interview for EB-2 visa 2 weeks ago and I was given the white slip. The consul told me they have run out of visas for my visa number and they will call me in October, which will be the start of the new fiscal year. Has anyone ever experienced this? 

did the consular officer told you in person that they have run out of visas? when did you attend your interview ?
Many people on administrative processing are perceiving the same said thing on their own but if what you are saying is true then it is a positive thing and could be very much true.
