we had attended on 6th Dec 2022 for H1b fresh visa t the Mumbai consulate. The passport was returned back on 6th Dec 2022 without a stamp.

And i have submitted all document on 03rd May 2023 and got mail from [email protected]. But status still is not changed and Case Last Updated: 21-Dec-2022

i was given a 221g green slip on October 28th. no documents were asked/requested and my passport was given back to me. my case was updated on November 2nd, 7th and 10th, however no more updates have been given since.  we applied for a G1 visa however i’m not the principle holder. i am only a dependent. i have been stranded here for two months now and i’ve been struggling to find other people who have been given a 221g with the same visa category. it seems that 221g’s are most common in K visas or spouse visas. was wondering if anyone has had the same experience. 221g got approved March 16 2023. Currently residing in the United States.

Third year phd student in experimental physics. Returned home to apply for my F1 visa, had not been back since undergrad. Interview was smooth, questioned slightly about my work which involves lasers, but then I was asked for my CV/list of publications which I didn't have. In turn, VO told me I was under AP and handed me a yellow slip, told me to submit my CV, PI's CV, research statement, proof of admission and funding online. Assuming I am under AP due to TAL. Interview: 04/03/2023 Documents Submitted: 04/03/2023 First update: 04/28/2023 (Refused under Administrative processing) Second Update: 04/29/2023 (Same) I expected to hear back about submitting my passport pretty soon after the two updates, but no luck as of yet. Fingers crossed, I am missing a lot of research currently.
