221(g) yellow form during H1B Visa stamping 52 Days..

I Appeared for interview on 14th Jan 2013.
VO did not asked me any thing just given me Yellow slip and said to track my case on consulate site
I work for a company with more than 1 lac employee..
Yesterday I received a mail from VFS stating my Petition is pending at mumbai/consulate
any one have idea what does it Mean.
Is this mean that they still haven't started working on it as I am already waiting since 52 days...

Did the mail say Petition is pending or the case is pending?

Hi ras305
Below is the response which I had got.

With regards to your query, we would like to inform you that, your visa application is still under process at the Embassy/Consulate. Most administrative processing is resolved within 60 days of your visa interview
Is this mean My Petition is still Pending at embassy and it has not been moved from the day of my interview...

Does this Mean I am in queue for long wait?????

Welcome to the club
Its 221g - Yellow- Admin Processing, I've been waiting for 8+ months now - same consulate.

Read through this thread and you can find users with 221g who've been lucky enough to get the visa in a few months (2 to 6).
Lets hope you join this list of lucky users.
You'll also come across a bunch of unlucky ones who've been waiting for more than an year - not sure how many of these cases are pending with Mumbai Consulate.
The bottom line is you never know when your case number might appear in the list, the consulate takes anywhere between a cpl of weeks to a few months and no one knows how many months is few months.

Have faith and hope for the best.

You can call DOS (** 202-663-1225) after 90 days, give them your passport number and they'll share the status updates if any, with you. - This of course wasn't of much help to any of the users here so far.

Hello,

I checked my visa status online on CEAC website and now it is showing issued, I submitted my passport 15th march 2013.

I appeared for H1B interview on 15th jan 2013 at mumbai consulate and i have got yellow 221g, on 4th march 2013 my ceac appeared and then next day i submitted my passport but after 5 days it return with without visa stamp and i got another yellow 221g with new date.

Again its appeared on 14th march 2013, and I submitted next day and the status is showing Issued now. I know its very rare case but it happened with me.

Best of luck to everyone, hope everyone will receive their visa soon.....

What is wrong with Mumbai consulate.

They have just cleared atleast 50 cases from 2011 and Jun 2012.
