Hello,

I have attended H1B visa interview in Vancouver on Dec 8th. Visa officer asked me a bunch of questions and gave a yellow form for 221g. I received an email later in the afternoon requesting for 

1. Resume 

2. Detailed area of research including coursework at masters level.

Any idea why did they ask these documents for? How long will this administrative processing take once we submit the documents? Anyone in same situation?

 

Thanks in advance for your response.

Not sure, but is your masters degree and your current job are different? as per forum, now a days they are asking those 2 questions and they are approving in 1-2 weeks.

Can you please let me know  which passport pickup address you gave. Last time when I had my interview in Vancouver in 2014 I gave Loomis Richmond address but now it seems it is not there so what is good pickup location we need to give.

It depends on where you are planning to stay(I mean better to choose the one which is close to your hotel). If you want the one which is close to the consulate, then you can choose 595 Burrard St, Vancouver location.

FYI-I picked up from 595 Burrard St location.
