Visa approved but still shows AP
Attended interview for H1 Visa stamping on Dec 7th at Hyderabad consulate along with my wife (for H4).
We were told Visas are approved and receive passports with in 2 to 3 days.
My wife revived her passport within 3 days with visa stamped.
Mine is still AP with last updated date same as interview date.
This is second time I went for H1 Visa stamping and I am with direct employer.
From the blogs it looks like some day we receive passports for those who are told visas are approved.
I think max it takes one month from blogs so far I saw.
Will update once I receive my passport.
Thanks.

H1b blue slip- CV and passport retained
I appeared for an interview at Chennai consulate on 28th nov. I was asked emerald questions like my employer/ client/ role & responsibilities (scientific field)/ highest degree. Mine is EC model. No vendors involved. Then officer looked at my resume and retained my resume and passport. He gave me a blue slip with a case number to track online.
The client was verified on 14th dec and My case was recently updated on 15th december.
Any idea how long does it usually take for them to take a decision? I am trying to be positive but the wait is frustrating.

H1 stamping Hyderabad 8 Dec.
Hi
I have been following this forum and wanted to share my experience here and also looking for any suggestions or opinions on the same.
Interview date: 8 Dec 2017
Questions asked:
VO: Good morning
Me: Good morning. How r u doing?
VO: Good. Thanks
VO: Did u hold any other visa before h1?
Me: Yes, I was on F1 before.
VO: Can I have ur I797
Me: Yes, here it is.
VO: which uni did u go to there:
Me: told the uni name
VO: who is ur employer?
Me:Xxxxx
VO: how many employees work there?
Me: xxxx
VO: do u have a client?
Me: yes I do.xxxx
VO: do u have a client letter?
Me: yes I do
VO: ok can I have a look at it? And also can u say what does ur client do?
Me: gave the letter n gave a brief description of the client.
VO: ok, I am keeping ur passport but there is a routine administration processing that would require 3 days. It can also take upto a week but it should take more time.
Me: can I know if it could go more than that cause i have my return trip planned which is next week
VO: It shouldnt take more time.
Me: ok thanks.
I dont know y is it taking that long. I have read in the forum that many people converting from f1 to h1 are experiencing this. I have contacted my university to check my sevis status n it says completed.To track the status I keep checking my email for the approval email and also the ceac.state.gov site to check the status but it still says” passport is with the embassy/ counsulate”. The case status was updated on 13 and then on 15 but it still says admin processing.Anyone with similar experiences? Would this be an issue caused due to delay in visa prinitings or any background verification. No one till now has been contacted yet neither my employer, client or my university.
Thanks

221g white slip and returned the passport
Hello All,
I request you all to give some suggestions about my 221g Case.
I had my interview at HYD consulate on Nov 7th-2017. VO asked basic questions,
Salray,
ZZZ
Petitioner,
XX
Client,
State client
Highest qualification
Masters from State university.
finally she asked is your CANADA visa(VISITOR) rejected. I said yes, there was a TYPO in my application. She said we cannot process your visa now needs additional processing and returned my passport and gave 221g White slip
It's been 40 days i still didn't received any email or call asking for documents. I have seen in this forum lot of people where asked documents for 221g white slip cases.
Can someone please suggest how i can proceed, If I didn't received any Email or call does it mean rejection of visa?

My H1b visa status is showing revoked .
Hi ,
I filed for my H1 visa on October 2015 and received my H1 visa approved on 4th Jan , 2016 . In between since my husband applied for his H1 visa extension ( Dec, 15) so I got my H4 ( I539) approved on Jan 14th , 2016. During the time of 4th Jan to 14th Jan i went to SSN office assuming i have H1 work visa to get my SSN number so that I can start the project but I have never received SSN on the basis of my H1 visa and my pay slip not generated against my H1 visa. And later on I assumed since my husband applied for H4 visa extension along with his H1 visa so i get converted to H4 visa again . Currently my H1 is showing revoked by UCIS . Am I not eligible to covert my previous H1 visa again? Can I be considered as out of cap ( cap exempt? )
