Thanks Viren for your wishes. When I was waiting for my visa, I did not come across any such service, where one could expedite administrative processing. On this page I posted a link where one could fill out a questionnaire if the J1 visa is delayed for more then 60 days. From my experience...

Hey Folks, I owe an apology for being away from the forum for quite sometime. I came to US just last week and was really busy with things here. Well here is the update. Date of interview-24 September at New Delhi for J1 visa. Submitted questionare and CV-26 September Got the call from...

Congrats Owen! Great that you also made it through. Honestly I have no clue what these lines really means. I would suggest that just ignore this and send your passport and then we wait. I also haven't received my visa yet. I submitted my revalidated DS-2019 last Monday and still no signs of...

Thanks Owen, Now days they are taking 8 weeks or even more to clear the cases. In my case, my sponsor and the international office there told me that they are unable to do anything to speed up the process. Also going through other forums, I read that people do try to put pressure through...

Hello Guys, Finally after waiting for 9 weeks, I got a call today from the embassy that they need my revalidated DS-2019 in order to issue my visa. I will send it on Monday. So, finally this nightmare is over. Will keep you posted about my status. Any updates in your case? In mean...

Hi Satish, My interview was on 24th September. I mailed them the questionare on 26th September. As I have read on these forums, the case is referred to DOS after they receive the questionare. This is what I was expecting when I called them, but the lady there told me that they received it on...

Hi Owen, Yes, I did call DOS, but they just informed me the day they received my case and nothing more. Today is exaclty 8 weeks after I mailed the Consulate in Delhi with additional documents....still no news from them. It could be any reason/s to cause this delay, but the bottom line is...

Hi Satish, 11th is holiday there in america, so probably it would be better to call them tomorrow. You know when your case started here, but calling DOS will let you know when did the consulate send your application to them. I have read on several forums that Chennai consulate has been slow in...

Hi Satish, No news yet. This is my seventh week in waiting and my name is still stuck up with additional admininstrative processing. Any news with your case..Did you call DOS to confirm when did they receive your application. If not, then I think that it would be a good idea. Dazzy

Hi Satish, That was perhaps the problem. It is better idea to send them at NIV address. I had mailed my files to both their addresses. I also hope that they do it faster..keep your calm because miracles do happen. Good Luck! Dazzy

Hi Satish, Sorrry to hear this. I can imagine that it msut be very frustating for you, but keep your calm. As I said earlier that Chennai Consulate usually have more problems. Do you remember that when you mailed them earlier did you receive any confirmation email stating that they...

Keep me posted if you hear any updates. Dazzy

Hi, Sorry to hear your problem. I can imagine that it must be very annoying. I also applied for J1 visa at New Delhi Consulate and was asked to fill out the questionare, which I did the same day and until now I have pending administrative processing. I have no experience of this sort and...

Hello Friends, I have been reading through this forum for some time and thought of posting my situation. I am a research scholar who has recently finished my Ph.D. and applied for a job as a post doctorate in a research institute in US. I had my interview for J1 visa in the last week of...
