Notes:
I went for the interview on the May 21st. The VO just asked me a couple of brief questions and asked for my area of expertise.
I was handed over a 221G white (same as green) slip.
I was asked to email submit the documents by email in docx form, even though I had all the asked documents on me.
Ever since I have been waiting for an update, until yesterday.
The status website updated on Jun 24th with me still being on Administrative Processing.
Now I am hearing about the VISA delays due to the DOS computer hardware glitch.
Hopefully things get ironed out sooner.
Aug 5, 2015: Still waiting on AP to finish and Embassy reaching some sort of decision. It's been 70 days.
Anyone else in the same boat?
Note: If you are confused between dropbox or interview for your visa renewal. I would go for interview. (Personal experience).
