****UPDATE****
Attended Visa Interview on Dec 2nd 2019 for H-1B stamping. This is my second stamping and working as full-time for the same company for 7 years.
VO asked some basic questions and handed me white slip with first box checked.
Received email after 3 hrs from interview requesting my Resume and Employment Letter.
Got acknowledgement email and the status updated date is Dec 2nd 2019.
Really Frustrating with the process.

Notes:
Recently I had the interview at the US Embassy in Pakistan, the consular asked me to show Petitioner’s Proof of Domicile and I was sent to the Administrative Process.
I sent the copy of voting record, a letter to perform jury service, state ID and Social Security Card.Will these documents be enough to show Proof of Domicile? If — they still demand some more things what should I do? How much time will this take to be completed?
At the end of the interview I was given a white slip, I saw many suchlike white slips of others and everyone's was ticked any of the above four boxes, but mine was ticked none. Is this a good sign or still same which does not matter?

I am a postdoc and I was in the USA for around 21 months on a J1 visa. I took J1 waiver and changed status within USA. Came to India for H1(B) stamping with wife for H4. Attended interview on 4th December at Kolkata. The VO asked basic questions such as job location, client, employer, salary, job responsibility, city in USA we live, if we have any kid etc. VO said everything is good, but we need to do administrative processing. VO returned passports and issued a 221(G) green slip, asking to submit research description, CV, supervisor's+employer's letters. Documents submitted on the next day (5th December) by email. On the second counter, the officer said it can take 4 to 6 weeks or more.
This is my 3rd time 221(G) vet, first on B1/B2 and second on J1 visa. Both previous 221(G) cases got cleared within ~30 days.
Passport submission email from consulate: 3 Jan
Passport submitted: 6 Jan
Case updated: 6, 7, 8 Jan
Case updated: 9 Jan: Issued
Passport picked up with stamp: 10 Jan
