2219 white slip visa refused
Hi,

I had my interview today (April 8th) ay Hyd consulate. Didn't ask any documents except for passport.

Questions asked,

1. Client NAme
2. Employer
3. Salary
4. Hight level of education
5. Did you go to school in US
6. How long have you been working for this employer
7. How did you get this job

Gave me a white slip (221g) with administrative processing checked.

I checked the status in one hour and it said, Administrative processing. Checked again in the evening and it says Refused. It's been not even 12 hours since the interview.

Anyone faced the same situation? and what would be my next step?

Thanks

H1b - F1 to H1b COS - Hyd
 interview - Apr 4th

Questions asked
Highest education level
Designation
Since when I started working in the company
How did I find the job
VO said visa approved and today status shows Issued

I am FTE working with the company from first week of my OPT.
After reading others experiences I prepared for out of status(even though not) Sevis verification, admin processing etc kind of outcome. Hopefully at this point I think I will get my passport in 2-3 days. So not every f1-H1b goes for additional processing.
So anyone going for COS stamping - All the best.

F1 to H1-B SEVIS Administrative Processing
I had my interview yesterday, April 2nd, in Delhi. Interview went smooth but in the end VO said there are some flags in SEVIS history and handed me a yellow slip stating 'SEVIS administrative processing'. I was asked if there was a semester gap or if I was ever out of status and I answered No. I was told these cases are common for F1 to H1-B and most of them are resolved in a couple of weeks.
Anybody in the same boat?
