Notes:
Me and my wife were refused before. CO asked about what I did in the US for so long (I visited it many times, each trip was 1-2 months long). CO also asked about my trip to Iran (nice place by the way). CO asked what we do in Thailand (I have businesses registered in home country and here).
Me and my wife wanted to go to Burning Man this year and the CO was cool about it, he knew what it is, and probably that's why gave us a chance. I guess we're under some background security check.
We were in a rush, so on the 13 of August I sent a letter to the embassy explaining that we should fly in 10 days and kindly asked them to consider reviewing our applications or let us know that the Administrative processing will take longer than our planned departure date.
We received a reply from the embassy the next day saying that our letter will be reviewed by the end of the week. We got a call from the CO on thursday saying that our visas are ready to be issued. We received our passports in 1 week
