Visa approved but still shows AP
Fingerprints Nov 27th and interview Nov 28th. Interview went smooth. No 221g was issued. But it still says Administrative Processing on CEAC website. Last updated Nov 28th. Usually it should take 2 to 3 days, but haven't seen an update yet.
Anyone in the same situation?

Visa Approved but in AP
I had Finger prints on Nov 27 and Visa interview on Nov 28. On Nov 28th, I went with my Kid (US citizen), my wife and myself who needs renewal for H4 and h1b.
I am highlighting the important points here.
VO asked all sort of questions on my Employer, client and project. He asked me to hand over all the documents and went inside and came back. He suggested to send my wife and kid to hotel and asked me to stay until I being called(gave yellow slip and asked me to wait). I am the first one and I see there are almost 5-6 parties who were given yellow slip like me and asked to sit. Later after 1 hour there is another lady called me from another window and collected more information since the beginning of my first visa. All h1s, I 140s, w2s and paystubs. She was so pleasing and told me she is going to wrap the things fast. I requested to do so since I have kids and my wife waiting in the hotel room. After just 10 mins, the original VO who interviewed me called me again and said you visa has been approved and I will get the passports in 3-5 days.
On 30th, my wife visa collected from bluedart. My status still shows "Administrative processing". But last updated date has been changed to Nov 30.
Can anyone say how long will it take to process it?

First H-1 Stamping (L-1 to H-1)
Folks,
I have my via stamping on January in India. My case is L-1 to H-1 Conversion , after conversion jumped employers twice and have an approved I-140 with previous employer. My current employer is a H-1 Non Dependent (>=85% are US citizens) and my salary is Level 4. I am working in EC model and Dint do my studies in US.
This is my first H-1 stamping. Any risks with 221G admin delays?
Thanks,
Aravind
