221-Chennai Consulate
Hi folks,
           I was issued 221g and Visa offier asked me to submit additional documents without passport. I have done the same on Feb 12th at VFS office. I got mail from consulate as follows

"In accordance with United States law and Department of State guidelines, action on your case has been suspended, and your petition for a Non-immigrant Worker filed on your behalf was returned to the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) on March 15, 2007 with a memorandum explaining the facts of your case as presented to us at the time of interview. The U.S. Consulate in Chennai is no longer handling your case, and will be unable to give you any information on the status of your petition".
 
    What does this mean? Please share if anyone have experienced the same.

Thanks & Regards,
Naren

.Any one can help me regarding AAP......(Its around 16th months)
Hi All,
I have read Mr.Bujji article in this..he got a visa after >20months.from chennai counslate.inspiring his worrds...

-------Pl look into this--------

I have applied and attended for H1B Visa on 24th of December 2005 at Chennai consulate - I was given a 221 G and I was asked to submit additional documents. Having arranged all the additional documents I attend for my visa interview on 25th of Jan 2006. I was again given 221G asking for a specific document called “Marketing analysis of the final product”. Having arranged the same on 24th of Feb 2006 (Marketing analysis of the final product) I handed over all my documents such as I 797-LCA-DS 156 & DS 157-PASSPORT IN ORIGINAL – DD OF 2300/- etc. at VFS office at Hyderabad as said by the counselor officer.
 
To my surprise after two months that is on 25th of April 2006 I got a courier from VFS office, on opening the courier I found My Passport in original and DD of 2300/ - without any letter from the consulate or any Visa stamping.
 
I called up Chennai consulate on the same day that is on 25th of April 2006 and intimated the officer about my case, the officer said that in her records it shows that additional documents sent by me on 24th of Feb 2006 were not received by the consulate and the visa officer added saying that, I should send an email to consulate explaining the case in detail.
 
 I have explained my case in detail to my best knowledge,and finally they got my all documents.

My application was put to Additional Admin Process, almost 15 months ago. I would like to know how long it would take for the completion of AAP, I am in a condition where in I am not able to understand the position of my visa status.

So any one can help me and throw some light on the way to further proceed in this aspect

I have got all this type of mails from chennai counslate..like

The admin process is not yet completed.

1)The Consulate is verifying information presented during your interview. This can be a lengthy process. While we recognize your desire to bring the case to conclusion, we cannot process your case until after the investigation is complete. We will contact you with more information as soon as it is available.

2)We regret we are unable to provide specific time frame for your case. If you wish to withdraw your application, please let us know.

 so tell me..what should i do shall i wait?Its almost 15-16months completed...

Critical information for H1 stamping chennai
Dear friends plz note that
There is a visa ready for every body who posses qualifiying degree for H1 eligibility,and applied with genuine company
Those who are issed with administative processing
means they should have submitted any fake document or given a false evidence to VO at the time of interview.Which many of the aspirants dosen't mention in this website.
Plz see that if u dosent posses a master degree in comp sci or BTECH in comp sci,consulate expects you have 3 years of work exp from genuine IT company.
Do not try to show any fake company,with no time VO can identify that the company u showed is a fake one.
PLZ be very very carefull about the company u applied for is paying taxes and all salries perfectly . check how many employees does this company has.what is visa sucess rate for its employees in past.
PLZ try to follow the above advice no body can take ur visa from u
