Quick Update: Alhumdulilah my visa has been approved. It took freaking 7 hours at the embassy due to the number of applicants, however the interview lasted ~3 mins only out of which 80% of the time was spent by CO typing..

 

Here's the 60 seconds conversation we had:

 

• Who is inviting you to the US?
• Is this your first marriage?
• Do you have children?
• Is he born in US?
• Does he walk?

• Did you ever travel out of Pakistan?
• How many times have you been to the US?
• How long did you stay in US during your recent trip?
• What do you do?

 

Everything seems good. Congratulations your visa has been approved. You'll have your passport in two weeks. Good luck"

Hi , mine is issued too .. have u picked up ur passport ? ... how many days it takes for delivery 

Nothing to worry about .. my interview was on 13 Jan and the VO said everything seems to be in order , we need to do last minute check and will contact u through email , you can go back to ur city ...they took all my orginal document and passport.. I was also confused that the VO didn’t say anything while two of the people who had interview on the same date , their statuses changed to ISSUED and mine was not reviewed till 18 .. the status changed to AP and on 21 Jan it changed to Issued .. so don’t worry .. check ur status everyday 

hi, please post ur case updates..mine is still in READY status

Even when a CO during the interview states "approved", that is not actually approval .. as stated before "actual approval" is during AP.    Relax.  Be patient

yeah agreed!! thanks for the response

Visa approval is NEVER during the interview, there is always administrative processing before (actual) ISSUED status.

but here i have seen many posts where the people were told on spot that they will receive their passports in two weeks. i was left in cliffhanger, i cldnt decipher her sentence properly. someone is saying that i may receive questionaire in email

Unfortunately Islamabad is not very consistent.   There is a paper that is given if your case is approved listing next steps, if refused for AP and a refusal that is being returned but many times no paper is given and you leave confused.  

 

The only thing you can do is wait for the email.   If you get a questionnaire then your case is refused for Administrative Processing and will take an unknown time to complete.  They typically do not email regarding an approval until after an extended Administrative Processing.  In either case at the moment your case is in AP ( all cases go through AP) but how long and the next step is unknown hopefully you'll hear something soon.

 

 

 

 

even the case status is not updated id its in AP.

If the interview was on the 13th, it's been only 2 days since AP.  I would imagine the last minute checking they have to do will take slightly longer than that   AP can take several days, weeks, months, sometimes even years.  

 

What is your country of origin?  

Pakistan

Typically if approved at the interview you are told you'll get your passport in a few weeks not an email.   It sounds like you may be getting the questionnaire.   Keep your eye out for the e-mail and contact them if you don't receive it in a few weeks.  Where you given a piece of paper that explains 221g?  

Nop... they didnt give me any slip or paper

hi,

my interview date was 13 Jan 20, the interview questions were normal, the VO took all my original documents , passport along with marriage pics and in the end she said " Everything seems to be in order , we need to do last min check, we will contact u through email" .. i asked her if my visa is approved or not she repeated the same sentence. i have checked my case status and its not yet updated, i wonder where i stand now. any leads plz
