The VO checked the client letter , vendor letter and employer letter and was concerned that the client letter did not have the client logo or letterhead.I said client now provides client letters only through their immigration agency. I was asked to provide W2s of past 2 years, LCA ,I129 , I -797 and made to wait for over an hour. Then the passport was returned and the blue slip 221g was handed with no documents asked ,saying your visa application has been refused for administrative processing .

Hi,
I attended interview on July 19th 2018 and officer updated that visa is approved. But, I received blue slip with passport in courier stating to submit client letter and sow through email. I submitted the required documents on July 23, 2018. They have reached my client on Aug 3rd 2018 for set of queries and client have responded on same day positively . As of today , no update from the consulate. Waiting.
One more question, my family was stamped and have visa. Are they travel now? Kids school start by next week. I have no option other than send them alone. Please advise

I got white slip (221g) and asked me to submit complete set of Petition, Itinerary of services, Contract, End Client Letter and Beneficiary Resume.
Can you please let me know what are the chances to approve the visa if I submit all required documents and what time will it take?
Also I need a suggestion for this - If I don't have client letter so what are the other options we can go with. I mean can I submit other document instead of client letter. Please suggest.

I had mailed the following documents to [email protected] : CV, graduation transcript, Invitation letter from the university, and a .docx questionnaire file with answers. I haven't yet heard from the consulate. Generally, the wait time for F1 visas under 221g is 30-35 days, But my status is still pending. Please suggest what should I do. My semester starts at 19th August, 2018.
