Administrative processing
Hi guys,

I just want to know if anyone else is in the same situation as me.

I switched to H1B status from OPT last October. I came home for my visa stamp in December. I was supposed to have my interview on Dec 5th but it was moved to Dec 14 due to President Bush's funeral. During my interview, the officer only took my h1b approval and asked my straight forward questions. He then asked me if I transition from undergrad to grad school and I said yes. Then he said that there is an error in my SEVIS record and he would need to fixed it in order to issue my visa. He also said its not a big deal and that it happens to most people that transitioned that way. He told me that he would let me know when my passport is ready for pick up. However, I still havent received any updates from them and my status still says admin processing. I have already missed two weeks of work and I am out of options. I did receive an email from the embassy on Jan 8th that my passport will be ready for collections in a couple of days however there has been no further communication after that. I have emailed several times and no reply.
