I taught it's all done but. She wrote 221g/trmvp something like this I was clear with 221G but not clear what she wrote about (trmvp) part. kept it with her self went inside and brought a white 221g and said "At this point of time I have no answer. we need some more time to process you can check you status this will take a week or 2. If you still dont hear from us email us at this email id in the forum" What I observed before going to 20th floor. I got my passport and 1797 and DS-160 floded in my passport by finger printing officer. She wrote a 'Please see CEAC' with red pen and my case number on top. This my case Guy's Good luck !!

srikanth16.p Posted July 9, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 9, 2013 @ben your right today morning my manager called me regarding a mail from vancouver consulate stating for validation on my position at the client place. He responded it. Do you know how along will it take for them to make a decision from point of response from my manager? also can you send me the contact detail's of that person to (***************)@gmail.com thanks in advance Ben!! @ponugupati My case was different I didn't see any 221g as I know.

Salman25 Posted July 15, 2013 Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 Hello Srikanth, I had my interview on July 15th at counter 4 and she gave me 221G and kept I797, DS160, Client Letter and Passport. But I asked her my passport back as I need to go to India. Anyway, what is your status now? have you got any response to collect your passport? If yes, how long did the process took for you? I am asking this because I need to go to India in 2 weeks fro my wedding, If the process is taking more than 2 weeks then I will go back to India if not then I will stay in Vancouver for 2 weeks. Please advice. Thanks... Link to comment
wrangler05 Posted July 16, 2013 Report Share Posted July 16, 2013 Hello Srikanth, My case is exact same as yours. I attended Visa interview today (july 15th). I observed that after finger prints my DS-160 was marked with 'please see CEAC'. My visa interview was done at counter 4 by a lady. She took my 797, DS, passport, paystubs, W2, client letter and didnt ask me any questions at all. After verifying my pay stubs for 10 minutes, she told me exactly the same " we need some more time to process your visa, I have no answer at this time" Did you get response back from the consulate. I hope your visa is approved. Can you please let me know? Thank you... Link to comment
