Hello, I am actually in Ottawa as well waiting for my H1B visa stamp. Interview was June 10th and I have been waiting since then.

 

Quick question though, did they take your passport photo, I don't recollect them taking mine and a little worried that will further delay the process.

I thought they will take from DS-160. They did not take mine too.

I had my interview today. Checked with the consular officer that 22 posts have been restored and if Ottawa is one of them. He said, unfortunately Ottawa is not one of them. He also said posts that have been restored are big ones and the Ottawa is a small one. Hopefully, ours will be back to normal soon.

  • The Bureau of Consular Affairs reports that the database responsible for handling biometric clearances has been rebuilt and is being tested.  39 posts, representing more than two-thirds of our normal capacity, are now online and issuing visas. We are working to restore full biometric data processing.We issued more than 45,000 visas yesterday.  Beijing alone issued nearly 15,000 visas. Our team continues to work 24/7 to restore the systems to full functionality. We will continue to bring additional posts online until connectivity with all posts is restored.

Did anybody go to embassy in Canada to see if we can take the passport and go to US and send the passport back in POSTAL MAIL to get the stamp.??

 

any possibility?? trying to reach embassy... no one answering...

 

@shivanimma: I asked them that and they didn't recommend it because if they needed to interview you again (for any follow ups), you'd be stuck without a passport to travel...
