ragz21 Posted October 10, 2012 Report Share Posted October 10, 2012 Hi I have been working for a financial client(EVC) from the beginning of 2010. my interview was yesterday(oct09) at 8:00. The VO gave me a white sheet saying " your visa is approved with pending Administrative processing" and returned my passport. I was the first H1b of the day and the interview went fine and was pretty straightforward. The questions asked were: Whos your employer whats your education qualification where did you complete your masters whats your major what are your roles and responsibilities she asked me for my resume and gave me the white form which says Admin processing. She didnt even check any of the docs/i129/lca/client letters/paystubs/tax statements or anything. She just kept my resume, recent i-797, ds-160 confirmation. is there anyone who had a similar issue? if so can you please respond on how long it would take to resolve this? Thanks. Link to comment

ragz21 Posted October 10, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 10, 2012 The accomodation is expensive unless you book it early. 2 other friends had the interview on the same day as mine, so we are sharing a room. we have been using Cab for transportation until now as we are sharing our expenses.

oct02 Posted October 11, 2012 Report Share Posted October 11, 2012 Had my L1 visa interview at Calgary US consulate on Oct 02, After the interview VO told me that "we are recommending your Visa but we need to conduct administrative processing. We will notify you once the processing is complete. It will take 2-3 weeks” and handed back our Passport with a white paper (Administrative processing). I have contacted US Consulate couple of days back, my case is still pending the completion of the administrative processing :( Now a day how long it takes to get response from consulate.

oct02 Posted October 24, 2012 Report Share Posted October 24, 2012 I thought of sharing my experience Had my L1 visa interview at Calgary US consulate on Oct 02, After the interview VO told me that "we are recommending your Visa but we need to conduct administrative processing. We will notify you once the processing is complete. It will take 2-3 weeks” and handed back our Passport with a white paper (Administrative processing) with resume and publication selected. I handed over my resume to VO. After waiting for exactly 3 weeks (checking status from consulate every week thru http://canada.usembassy.gov/contact/public-inquiry-form.html), I got email from consulate on OCT 23 to submit my passport in consulate or in LOOMIS office which we selected Initially. Today I went to US Consulate to submit my passport. Visa Officer told me that my visa is approved and wait couple of days to receive my passport. Link to comment
