H1B - Administrative processing pending
Hi Friends,

First of all, thanks to all those, who contributed to this web-site by providing their valuable experiences.

I attended my H1B interview on 11th Dec 2006 and interview went through fine without any hiccups. But, at the end, the consular officer said they want to do background check and it would take couple of weeks time.

I insisted if he needs any other info/documents from me, he said everything is fine, except that he just want to complete a formality admin process and its nothing to worry about. He was asking if I was involved in any kind of issues (problems) before (not sure if he meant for criminal records). I answetred that 'No, never I was involved' with affirmation. He said, "then its just a formality check and its just a matter of time'.

He talked nicely and concerned about my travel plans (which is during 2nd week of Feb 2007) and he said they can make sure that this admin process can be over before that. He asked me whether i gave my phone numbers properly since someone might call me shortly.

He finally handed over pink letter 221(g) saying Administrative process pending, with a case number.

This case number can be tracked in a PDF (which have huge list of pending cases, even from 2004/2005 :-( ) from chennai consulate web page.

Till now, noone called me :-( Whats next in store for me? Is there anyway that we can do a follow-up?

Appreciate any kind of help/suggestions.

Thanks !!!
