Reply from Ottawa Consulate: Need Help

[mitsu3000gt]

My cousin attended her first H1B interview at Ottawa Consulate on Oct 24th. VO mentioned that her visa is approved and hold her passport for stamping. She was waiting for email from loomis for passport pickup details.

However, on Oct 26th 10.00am she received this email:

We will contact you once the process has been completed.

US Embassy Ottawa

Does any one have any idea? Did any one ever get email from consulate like this. Any help is appreciated.

Guys any update????

My Interview was in Ottawa on Sep 25 8:00AM.

Still no email. I am still waiting.

[mitsu3000gt]

Upon email from consulate, my cousin went to consulate and they asked for "Stamped I-129". I repeat its Stamped I-140. Does any one has any idea what this piece of document is? They told her to come back by 2pm today with that document.

She called her employer and atorney and they said, there is nothing document like that. Atty faxed and emailed consulate the I-129 letter attested. When she went to consulate again at 2pm, they asked the same thing. When she showed them I-129 and petioner letter, he wasnt still satisfied. He left the counter for 5 mins and came back with passport saying that its 221(g) and handed over white slip..

All they said is, to wait till they email anything. Does anyone face similar situation? btw, her interview was on 24th sept.

hi

mitsu3000gt, you posted that your cousin client received email from embassy, any updates on that case? did she get her passport back? I am on same boat, my client received an email, but no updates from embassy since them regarding passport pick up.

[aa5]

mitsu3000gt,smkb,vikky123 any updates from embassy?

[mitsu3000gt]

aa5: my cousin got 221(g) white.

[vikky123]

As my case was 221g. On friday 4pm i got an email asking for a letter from vendor. I have to still send it. Even 2 more frnds with me are waiting for the reply who got 221g white slip.

[RAMS123]

VO didn't give me anything, just took our passports and 797, We were told it will take some time (not sure how long?). Can any one please let me know, if I can go to another VISA interview and get stamping.

[aditya232]

Guys, I called Department of Homeland Security, they took my passport details and told me that its still under administrative processing and that they are still working on it.

Any idea what this means or how long it could take?? My interview was on 25 SEP 8:00 AM and I did not get any update from Consulate or LOOMIS yet.

[rajmd]

I am also on the same boat. I was interviewed on 26th Sept. I sent email for passport update. They sent an email saying its just not printed yet. I wonder how many days does it take?

Any one interviewed same time received their passports?

[pd_242]

Hi guys...does anyone have any updates from the consulate for 221g after your client answered the questions. My interview was on Sept 25th 7.30 a.m. I'm still waiting for an update.
