I am in the same boat, visa approved on April 3rd and I had NO PIMS stamped during the interview. Waiting for the passport since then.

 

Tried to check the status using below link and it shows administrative process since day 1. What do you see here?

@hawk - u can't do anything about it...pims should be updated 8 - 10 weeks, after ur h1 is approved.

[prk123]

Finally, status changed to "Issued" @10.24am... today is 8th working day. Please check yours and update...

[Muksa]

My status changed to Issued around 10AM today.

Hoping to see the waybill number soon today.

@prk123 @muksa @max... can  you share your email address with me... I have a interview scheduled in next couple of weeks. 

 

Can you also tell me what is the Petition approval date on your I-797 ? I just trying to figure out the time PIMS would take to update.
