rd9999 Posted September 25, 2015 Report Share Posted September 25, 2015 Hi Vishnu, You misunderstood b/w status, 'READY' & 'READY FOR PICKUP' READY doesn't mean passport is ready for pickup(READY status shows up mostly during PIMS verification process). Ready means they are done with PIMS verification on your H1 petition and they are ready to go ahead with Admin processing(Approval). Trust me, this info is from my personnel experience happened when i went for stamping with 'latest amended petition', it takes extra 1 or 2 days for you to get passport back compared to regular approved petitions.Below is the life cycle of status as per my experience. Once your VO says approved then status goes to: Administrative Processing-->Ready(PIMS verified)--> Administrative Processing(again)-->Issued--> Ready for Pickup try to memorize if some officer wrote 'NO PIMS' on back of you passport sticker just before going to interview counter or check if the petition you gave to VO is just approved before your interview (like 1 or 2 months old), if so this scenario occurs, just wait for 1 or 2 extra days,thats it. dont forget to post all your experience in the forum once your visa is approved, so that it will help our friends in the forum.
