Notes:
I was told visa approved during the interview. But after not seeing any update for 10 days i contacted the embassy and they told me that the "your application is refused under Section 221(g) of the Immigration and Nationality Act for administrative processing. After administrative
processing is complete, the application will be reconsidered". Not sure if this means the visa is refused or is still under consideration. In any case, if it doesn't come through soon, i won't be able to attend the school for my MBA and that will be a real heartbreak. They didn't even asked me to submit any document and did take my passport during the interview.

Got a 221g, with blue slip stating additional administrative processing is required. This is my renewal through drop box. Sent documents, got the passports back after a week with a blue slip asking to attend interview. Attended interview and got 221g blue slip again. I work as an FTE for a top tech company and have been employed in US for the last 3.5 years. Came back to India for stamping. Had to stamp H1, and H4s and all went into admin processing.
Case Created: 06/20/2017 (Dropbox docs received date)
Last updated: 06/29/2017 (Interview Date, Thursday): Admin Processing, Passport Status: "Passport has been picked up"
Next Update: 07/12/2017 (Tuesday): Admin Processing, Passport status: "There is no status update available for the passport number
submitted"
Next Update: 07/13/2017 12 noon - Issued.
Collected passports on 07/14/2017. Visa marked with clearance received on 07/04/2017 itself, but issued on 07/13/2017.
Thank you and all the best for everyone in 221g.

Notes:
I work for an Agricultural seed company. I have been working for this company from the past six and half years. My visa status got changed from F1-OPT-H1B (3 years) -First H1B Extension (3 Years)- Second H1B Extension (Current 3 Years). However, I attended the visa interview only for my F1 stamping in 2006 and never visited India after I joined this company. So I never attended the H1B visa stamping interview. In the mean time, my I-140 got approved with 2013 priority date under EB-2 quota and my wife got H-4 EAD too. Apart from the job, my company is also sponsoring my PhD education in Genetics and Plant Breeding by paying the tuition. Now, after my second H1B extension got approved in March 2017, I came to India to attend a wedding assuming that my visa interview will go smoothly but I am wrong. We went to visa interview and the visa officer asked about my PhD and my job location etc. My wife was asked whether she is working or not. We told the facts and the officer gave us whiteslip
