H1 visa interview. No 221g. Status Administrative Processing

[patel123]

Attended visa interview on May 1st at Chennai consulate. There were only 3 questions - Designation, Salary and education. After this the officer said you are all set. I was not given any 221g forms. However status changed to 'Administrative processing' the same day (May 1st) and is like that till now. Customer care people also says its in administrative processing. I've my travel scheduled on may 18th.

Is there anyone in the same situation here. Anybody has any insights.

NB: I am a full time employee for a US Company. There is no client-vendor relationships. My family is still in US on H4.

Nothing can be done beside waiting for consulate to make a decision. Most 221g admin processing cases have a decision in 2-8 weeks. Give them at least 2 weeks. 

Not a bad idea to email consulate/ustraveldocs and let them reply to you what they are doing on your case.

@patel123 I am in a similar situation like you. When did you eventually get your passport back? It has been 4 weeks for me since my interview
