Hi Guys,
Me and my wife did attended for H1/H4 visa interview at Chennai consulate on 25th Feb. The interview was quick 2/3 minutes. Asked about Salary, Job Duties, Highest degree, Job location. Everything answered but after few seconds VO said i am not rejecting/ refusing your visa but need to few docs to further process and gave a pink slip. And did retained both of our passports.
I did sent the applicable docs - Employer invitation letter, Detailed Cv, 10 years travel history. Research and Publications not applicable in my case. My field of working in Oil and Gas industry.
I have my travels booked for Mid March. Does anyone in the same boat as me? and when i can expect some reply?
Thanks
May 12th 2020:
Guys my Case status changed from Refused to Administrative Processing on May 12th. Any clue when we can expect the next status update?
Thanks

EVC-F1-OPT-H1B-H1B Amendment, 2nd client - no client letter submitted in amendment.
I passed the passport with I797 with greetings
VO - What do you do?
VO - Who is your client?
VO - What is your Salary?
VO - Typing . Turned sideways to take a slip
VO - Handed me a yellow slip and with just my name and Date - Dec 2019 and said "You do not need to do anything, your employer needs to submit these documents"
- Greeted and left the window
221g asked- Client Letter & Itinerary of Services
1/12- Vendor letter and Itinerary
1/28- Email for support to submit Client Letter
2/4- Client Letter Submitted
2/6- Client responded to verification email form embassy
followup - Every Week 1 email and 2 calls to support
2/24- Received email to submit passport
3/3- Passport received
3/6- US Travel
Delay was on my side or client's side to submit the client letter to embassy which took most time in this case.
Note: The CEAC case status was never updated until passport was submitted
