H1b Approved but no response in 12 days
I visited the Islamabad embassy on 25 Feb, 2020 for H1b visa plus H4 visa for my family.

VO asked questions related to job and degree. Then the visa was approved and I received the blue approval slip.

Since then, it showed administrative processing till 3rd March 2020. On 3rd, it turned to refused. Since then there has been no status change.

Till yesterday, passport tracker said "still with consulate/embassy". Today suddenly the passport status is showing "There is no status update available for the passport number submitted." Case status is still refused but updated date is still 25 feb 2020 (same as always)

Can anyone tell me what might be happening here?

221G AP - HYD Client Vérification
Hello
 
Can anyone share the experience if were in the same situation like me. I have already posted in the forum earlier Kane777 Feb 28, 2020 11:56 AM

I got an interview done on Feb 18th, VO issued 221G with AP. client received the verification email on Feb 20th and they replied back on feb 25th. With incorrect details, it’s been more than 10 days since they have already replied and just got to know that they have verified me with an other project details which was not listed in my H1. The verification email consisted of relation, project start and end date, job duties and if it will be extended or not after 6 months.

Please can anyone let me know what are the possible outcomes? Are there any chances of re interview or will ask for more documentation ? Is there anyway I can involve my attorney to write an email to consulate ? Or ask the client to write a new email saying the details provided was incorrect.

Thank you in advance
