221g white paper

[snbtcca]

405 cases for April. Even to get to 100 in next three months they should clear at least 5 cases of April every working day. Lets see when the focus comes back to April & March cases.

March'13, April '13 and May'13 are the worst hit months for the sample of my analysis. For these months many cases are still pending and the processing is ultra slow. All these pending cases are on 2nd or later conveyors having missed the 4-5 weeks window:

Since 10th of July: 20 Cases from May Cleared (Avg. 7 case per week)
Since 10th of June: 21 Case of April Cleared (Avg. 3.5 case per week)
Since 10th of May: 19 Cases of March Cleared (Avg 1.8 cases per week)

Conveyor Analogy:

June'13 is doing pretty good so far. It has 336 cases pending and the processing lot is still at 10th of June. I'm of the view that it would come to the stable level of 75-80 pending cases by 1st week of July.

221G in process and apply again based on recent h1 extension

Is it possible to again go for visa interview to the same consulate based on the new I797 received for H1 extension with same employer when earlier stamping is still in 221G.

Appreciate any response/views.

For Month of March and April to go to levels of Jan and Feb or earlier months which is less then 75 cases it will take long time as hardly 5 cases gets approved each week. Or we should expect a huge movement for those months pending cases soon. Wish they clear them soon.

How vast is the Ocean?

I happen to look at the pdf on Chennai Embassy website today, I am shocked to see there are cases pending from 2008. I mean processing since last 5 years...

Lot of cases pending from 2011, and 2012... it's unbelievable.



After seeing this, I feel like I am a drop in the ocean.

Read about Rejections after 221(g)

I never heard case of H1B getting rejected after 221 g. 221g is just a matter of time;otherwise everyone would get visa

I have read few posts about rejections after 221(g), not specific to students visa but in general. By Rejection I meant visa not issued. I have seen cases where the candidate appeard for visa interview visa denied and then again applied for visa and got it approved, this whole process took around 2 years. But eventually he got it. But rejections are very possible, but the ratio of denial to sucess is very very less.

Hello Everyone,

Hello Everyone,

Is there anyone who has heard that visa got rejected after 221(g) admin processing in case of fresh H1B …?

Please share. I have heard a case today.

I haven't....especially if they put it in 221g for more than a few weeks it almost always gets approved eventually. Also when you say "rejected" you mean the visa was denied and passport returned or was it just a "refused" status on CEAC site? I ask cuz there's a difference. It has been confirmed by DOS that the CEAC site is still being developed hence many cases are incorrectly showing up as "refused" even though they are still pending administrative processing....

And if it infact it was rejected, pls try and share the details....why? any reason given from their end? was the candidate really genuine?? etc etc...

Thanks
