221g_and_waiting

Bad news from my side.. last week got an email from consulate that my case has been sent to KCC and I would need to contact the approving USCIS office. The reason for refusal of visa under 221g was not stated. I sent a mail this week asking for the reason behind refusal and I get a reply saying that my case is still under mandatory administrative processing. I am not sure which of the two mails I should believe.

Congrats 221g_Sep9_2011.. :) It really feels good to hear about approvals.. Its kind of keeping up our hope..

Congrats truePatriot !!

@cool_naveen.. Then you will have to wait for their email..

I got a mail from Chennai consulate email ID ( not from vfshelpline ID). They mailed that my case is still under review. And congrats nrkiran... Wish you all the best!!

I think this list is for people who got pink slip.. At the time of submission of docs, the VFS person told me that unless your passport is submitted along with the docs , your case cannot be tracked online.. @Cool_Naveen & @Visa_Torture.. Did you submit your passports along with the docs they requested??

hopefully some good news :)

Got reply from VFS .. they have replied that they have sent my inquiry to US Consulate and once they get info from US Consulate they would reply me with that..

Yes .. May be its coz of thanksgiving holidays.. even I had send an email to VFS on monday.. Did not receive any reply from them still.. Planning to call DOS ...

Even I am on the same boat.. It was my first time H1B stamping (EVC model)and interview was at Chennai consulate. Interview Date : 7th October 2011 221g received : green form with petitioner details checked Submitted Docs : 12th October 2011(without passport) Status : Still waiting Inquired about the status three times via email.. First time reply came that they had received the docs and the case is under review. Second time they replied saying the case is under administrative processing Third time they replied that the case is under mandatory administrative processing Do not know how long it would take...
