Anyone has had H1B stamping issues in home country ( 221g admin processing / delays)? I've heard of a few recent cases where people have been stuck for several months.

Mine took 2 days

I got stuck this time. 4th time renewing it but first time getting 221g, was told it's going to take 3 or 4 weeks…

3 of my H1B resources have gotten theirs between 4 and 31 days.

@SMC1 - what is the procedure if delays are caused dur to Visa? Were your resources given unpaid leave or considered on bench?

@D1 - sorry to hear that - hope it clears out soon. Im considering if I should go to my home country in December , not sure if it's worth the risk - can't afford to lose job over delays (tons of student loans to pay)
