I have interview last week of November 2019 in Islamabad embassy, at the end of interview visa officer ask me about the Domicile of my wife, my son and wife were with me at the time of interview. He gave us refusal letter and ask to submit domicile online. Mid of December I upload the domicile. In that time i got one update but there is no progress on my case from NVC side yet. I am not sure who is going to review my documents, NVC or Islamabad embassy. I have to send these documents to embassy as well or it is enough to upload on the portal?. Usually how long it took to finish the AP Kindly guide me.

We are all in waiting list..no one knows whose turn will come first. Average time of AP is 180 days as the email told but it varies from case to case.

Administrative Processing can be caused by many things, not just by the necessity of background check. My husband is in AP because of a missing document (Police certificate for his 15 y.o. son).  

I am in AP also due to missing document dear. The CO asked me to upload one document online n kept my passport n also didn't tick any other option on the form except the missing document.

You seem to be confused to understand my comment well. I meant i understand if Pakistanis are placed under AP but what about that french and other cases? That is all. 

This forum is to take help form others' experiences. 

Thanks . 

I didn't say at all that this is Pakistan section as I can see people from various countries. I mentioned the phrase "Pakistan section" to refer to your earlier comment of high fraud country list and disproportionately high ratio of Pakistanis placed under AP.  

I also pray that all end up getting what is the best for them.

Dude:  this thread is NOT in any sort of Pakistan section.  It is in the section for waivers.  This is why @portorusa, whose French husband is on AP,  was comrmenting. 

 

You seem to be confused.

I’m not in AP.

This reply is intended for the one who is in AP but does not belong to Pakistan. Earlier I saw a post like this.

It may seem like the Pakistan section because of the disproportionately high numbers of Pakistanis who end up in AP, but this is not a country-specific forum or thread.

Then I wonder why are you in AP since you belong to a different country? Good luck to all of us.

By "update" do you mean the change of date on your AP case on the CEAC website? 

In my husband's case it was done twice already followed by nothing, i.e. dead silence. What can it mean I wonder?

Yes I mean the change of date on AP case dear on ceac website

Hi asalamulaikum

I am from karachi and i got my interview on 16 sept and VO asked me to upload additional docx i upload additional required docx on 25 sept and my ISL case is in AP from last 3 months as well i send them 2 inquiries in this time frame and i got email from them that they are reviewing my docx .Is there any contact details of anyone that we can connect each other by knowing the status of eachother cases.

They didnt tell me that they are reviewing my documents even when I asked them via emails. They sent me the public response that your case is under AP. Also my last update status never got changed since my interview on 30th sep. Whether I call or email they send me the same reply.

Hi Zebi,

my wife had an interview in June 2019 and there wasn’t any update on the case until we inquired after 90 days. They asked for additional docs which my wife had taken with her during the interview. I am not sure why they didn’t kept the docs during the interview. All in all, we are still in AP 6+ months. Hopefully, everyone gets a good update soon. 

They asked me for document on day of interview which I uploaded after one month due to certain reasons. Wish all of us a very good luck in sha Allah

It is quite rare.  Most of the ones I have seen for Europe are for people who were born in a MENA/high fraud country, or who hold dual citizenship with 

 I have seen people getting visa immediately from Pakistan too. Many cases in front of me when I went for interview. But when documents are missing as happend in my case then time can be taken. And we are unable to understand so much time the embassy is taking to review documents. That's making all frustrated.

I submitted mine Tax returns on 28 July still waiting.

Have you all got visa?? Mine is the same issue as you guys have been discussing.

Well its official . You cannot do ANYTHING to get a status update if you are in AP. Nothing. Myself, family members, spouse, everyone emailed and called and you get the same reply at all times, same exact line: " we will give you an update as soon we can, thanks" email and phone calls. Same thing. Just gonna chill out.

And please if anybody gets any update then please let me know. It will help people like me as well to understand their estimated time to reply

No I was asking something else. I mean to say is there any one who has not received any update after interview  just like me??definitely they will take their time n all will happen  as per their desire

Have you noticed any change in your last update since your interview? There is none in my case.  The last updated is the same as that of my interview date

Same dude, its so distracting. I feel like i am stuck in limbo, cant progress. Hard to work,enroll in the new job position, and get new residency even . I guess,we should just continue doing what we were doing, school/work and keep our routine. Itll come when itll come.

Yes you are very right . I am thinking to do the same.

Yeah , seems like it. Thats very unprofessional and disgusting.  Not to mention it costs a lot for the BS medical  . Rude and ignorant services.

More than the money, it is making us suffer  mentally too. It is nothing except to make us exhausted and depressed. They should immediately make decisions, if want to accept then do immediately and if want to reject then also they should not take much time. Imagine if after that much time we come to know that visa is rejected. Everything should be done with caution but it doesn't mean that their decisions should affect  our future plans. Atleast I am unable to do anything right now due to this fatigue

Very sad n bad news  😓😭 call helpline n ask ur status

It is written on DOS website that medical should not be older than 6 months before entry into the US. So what if they reply somebody after 6 months?does it mean that we have to do medical again and then again have to go for itnerview? I am unable to get the unknown reasons of delay which are making all of us frustrated.
