Anyone got administrative processing when applied for H1B stamping? If so, what were the next steps? The visa officer at consulate didn’t give any information neither asked for any additional document

I got admin processing. I had applied on 6th December, in chennai consulate and got mine approved today. I’d say for the people who are worried about their visa, not to worry and let’s be positive ! 😊

Did you get 221 g form? How do you know your case is in admin processing ?

My gf. She was told at the interview that the visa is approved and would be ready in 7 days. But it’s been 16 days and the status still shows AP

I did. Took 3 weeks to get the passport stamped from the consulate. This was back in August 2018 and in the Chennai consulate

I have. They didn’t actually tell me that it was going to take long. But online status said admin processing. I waited for about 5 weeks to get mine eventually.

Thanks everyone
@senior consultant 1 - no didn’t get 221g form they just gave a slip and said it needs further processing

I got the 221g form. Took 5 business days from the time of interview at the Mumbai Consulate. Hang in there. It’s a daunting process but you’ll get it soon

I submitted my documents on November 6th for dropbox. Case has been in Admin processing status since Nov 9th.

Just been thru this frustrating situation. Last year the stamping took 4 days but this year I got the letter and the process was 2 weeks long. 3 weeks delay in total but I was in Vietnam. I hope everything will be ok for you. I can’t do anything but just waiting.

I had my interview 2 days back at mumbai consulate. Same story as OP. Visa was approved but website shows AP. My LCA is filed.. hope that doesnt interfere with the stamping.

EY1 : case is in AP for 2 days for all applicants. Check tomorrow hopefully visa status should be “Issued"

I got the visa issued took good 10days.. thanks everyone
