Hi Bhaskar

Have you got any response yet from the consulate. My fiancee went for his first time h1b stamping in chennai on Nov 2nd and got an 221g blue to submit additional docs. He submitted them on Nov 8th and is waiting for a response. The person at the drop box said that he will be contacted this week and he has to submit the passport in person.

Same situation. had interview @chennai on oct 18th and got 221g blue form but dd not ask for any additional documents but said needs additional administrative processing. its been 3 weeks and still no emails from consulate to submit the passport.

The client was contacted and the response was sent back to consulate.

For 221g blue, are u guys able to track the case number on the website?

Nope the blue 221g case numbers are not traceable.

@l1toh1us : How did you know that your client was contacted?
