H1B non cap 221G
Hi All,

I attended H1B stamping interview in Chennai today. Got 221G blue slip with only one box checked - "Your application is refused for administrative processing. The application will be reconsidered when administrative processing is complete. "

In the interview they asked about the client, internal project. They also looked at SOWs etc. I was asked to wait for few minutes and then they called me for another round of interview. This time it was an Indian officer. He again went through and discussed about LCA, internal projects. And then they asked me to wait again. Later the first officer called me to his counter and handed me 221G blue slip and returned my passports - saying that "They need additional time for processing. They do not need any documents at the moment. And will contact me directly if they need any"

Is this usual? What are the next steps?

FYI: I had H1B from previous employer and it expired last year. And also my last extension & also non cap petition from India denied. I also have an approved I-140.
