H1B approved but status administrative processing
 I am a medical doctor who has matched into a pediatric residency in USA. My visa interview for h1b for myself and h4 for my wife was held on 27th june 2016. visa officer at the time of interview said " your visa has been approved and expect an email within a day or two (to collect the passport)." Since then the status is showing administrative processing and its been more than 3 weeks since the interview. My residency program has started from 1st of july and they are already getting impatient waiting for me.
My question,
Does this normally happen that even after saying your visa has been approved and giving a handout at the time of IV which also stated "expect an email within 5 working days" they can put someone in administrative processing?
is anyone else in the same boat or has been through the same situation?
is there anything that can be done to expedite it i have heard some lawyers claim that they can expedite administrative processing?
