Hello Jwkommuguri!!

Sad to listen about ur 221g, im on the same stage, Yesterday september 4th i showed at the dubai consulate for stamping with my family, all went fine and did to me some basic questions. We did the finger printing, checked my petition and we felt confident that we were going to get the visa, but at the end the VO its looking at the computer and gave me the yellow slip with the case number, she did not marked anything, only the case number. When my wife asked this is denial or what its? the VO told her to check on the system after 3 weeks, that this was not denial but also not approval.

Me & family- Hello

VO- Hello, checking our passports.

VO- Have you ever been in US before?

ME- Yes, in **** for *** days (tourist)

VO- What relation you both have? (looking at my wife)

Me- Husband & Wife

VO- How long have you been married?

Wife - almost *** years

VO- Why you think you are the best candidate for this job?

Me- Explained to the VO about it.

After that she is looking at the computer, and after 3-5minutes gave back our passports with the yellow page.

Please let me know how ur case its going or share your email.

Hello,

I had my interview today in Dubai, however everything went smooth except the part that i told them i was on my sixth year of H1B and thus i was given the yellow slip stating that Administrative Processing is needed. I mentioned to them i have approved I-140, but even then i was told to go through this route of waiting.

They however gave back all the documents including passport and the visa counselor told me it takes around 1-2 weeks to get it resolved.

Fingers crossed.

I have been waiting since 15th Sep. The last info. was as follows
“We confirm that your case is currently undergoing administrative processing. We are unable to predict the time required to complete this process. We are unable to expedite the clearance process.”

For sure, I 'll keep u posted if things change. Happy New Year!
