kkp1238 Posted January 31, 2012 Report Share Posted January 31, 2012 Hi All, I'm starting a new thread to discuss about my situation here. All your suggestions are very much valuable to me. Below are the details of my case. -> I got a DUI in october -2011 ( first time offence) -> Paid all the fines , completed license suspension period of a month and required programs. -> Attended H1-B visa interview on Jan-04-2012 in Chennai. -> I mentioned about DUI conviction on DS-160 -> VO did ask me any thing about DUI at all. He just asked me about my employment. -> based on what i heard about DUI cases. i was expecting that VO would ask me to medical examinations and also a 221G -> But not sure if i got lucky , VO didnt ask anything about DUI and mentioned that my Visa is approved and i will get my visa in business days. ( thought , i got lucky) -> However, i haven't received my passport till date. its already been almost 4 weeks.I have already started to get worried about it now. Does any one of you heard of similar situation like ..Visa Officer saying that visa is approved, but not receiving the passport for weeks together. please help me out with your valuable suggestions. Thanks Link to comment
prkprasad78 Posted January 31, 2012 Report Share Posted January 31, 2012 Why don't you call the vfs office and check the status of your passport. you don't need to mention about dui to them. just tell them your interview date and visa approval. Link to comment
Chitown01 Posted January 31, 2012 Report Share Posted January 31, 2012 Contact VFS office... there r times when VO say it is approved and then the application gets stuck in admin processing.... They will inform you if they are issuing you a 221 g or holding for admin processing. Link to comment
kkp1238 Posted February 1, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 1, 2012 I have contacted them number of times. Everytime i call them , i was asked by them if i was issued any 221G and i said no. Then i have been told that may be they must be doing some kind of admin verification like employment verification and i will contacted if any documents are required. What would be the average waiting time in these kind of situations. Thanks Link to comment
