RMKhan Posted September 27, 2013 Report Share Posted September 27, 2013 Dear All, I need your advice please. I attended VI at Delhi in 1st week of Feb 2013 & Handed over a 221(g) White slip & no additional docs asked. They retained my passport & a copy of I-797.Officer did not say your visa is approved. Because, I was not much confident at the time of interview over all I can say that Officer was not happy after taking my Interview. I am working in a IT company & providing IT services to TOP most Pharmaceutical Company of USA. Since the VI's date, my case was not updated on ceac site till 25 Aug 2013. Suddenly, there were 3 updates on my case (26th, 27th & then 29th Aug 2013 (28th Aug was a holiday there)).After, last update there is no change in my case. I was very happy that I will get clear soon but it did not happen. Generally, after 2-3 updates people are getting their Visa but my case is still pending yet. Based on your experience what would you say on that whether it is a good sign or bad? OR what they actually did on these dates?? I have heard that sometime consulate put case in admin check again without giving any new template. Please help me to understand this & what can I do now. I am very frustrated & lost my all hope. Admin your advice will be appreciated!! Thanks in Advance!! Link to comment
kumar_y Posted September 27, 2013 Report Share Posted September 27, 2013 They are doing the background check on you because they haven't asked you any documents. You need to wait for the consulate to contact and time frame can be from 2 weeks to few months also. Sorry about your situation... Link to comment

kumar_y Posted September 30, 2013 Report Share Posted September 30, 2013 RMKhan, They are doing the background check on you (because of your common Muslim name. Sorry if I am wrong about this) or they are doing the same on your employer. Since your already moved from the previous company it shouldn't be the problem Link to comment

kumar_y Posted October 4, 2013 Report Share Posted October 4, 2013 @Pakerjohn your visa is approved if they have asked you to submit the passport. @ RMKHAN you need to wait and that's the best thing if you can for your current situation. Link to comment
