221g in kolkata.

[satyab.2002]

Hi,

I attended my H1b visa stamping in Kolkata. I got Orange letter with Additional processing. There is no case number or anything to contact. They informed to contact after 21 days.

Please, can one tell me. How to contact to know the status of the application.

Please, can anyone reply to this.

@satyab

Sorry about your Orange 221g. It just cannot be tracked. Calls to VFS, Kolkata Consulate, DOS - all will result in the same answer "under process". Unfortunately, you cannot do anything much but wait to hear from the Consulate. On a brighter note, Kolkata seems to be responding back fairly quicker than other places (my observation).

If you were asked to submit additional documents, then you could have another interview when you go to submit the documents at the specified time on the 221g. Else you just have to wait.

Please, can anyone reply to this.

The other thing would be to send a query from your congressional rep or senator to the consulate.

@satyab,

In the same boat..Got an Orange slip from Kolkata administrative processing no additional documents asked...Its the 5 th week no no update yet..Did you hear back from the consulate.

Please keep us posted of any developments..

As per my attorney this process takes 6-8 weeks...so just waiting for any updates now
