DV 2011 Under Adiminstrative Processing

reply from us cosulate

Dear All,

My wife emailed to us embassy, dhaka requesting to inform her the status update of the case. They replied :

"The required administrative processing is still pending. Review times vary due to factors beyond our control and we are unable to expedite or speculate about review times. We will contact the applicant as soon as the process is complete. We appreciate your patience and understanding on this matter. "

How long should we wait? We can not travel because they kept our passport. Can any one has the answer?

Hi All

Does the embassy inform the DV winner for the final result of administration process?
Or the candidate should contact the embassy frequently to know the visa status.

Also, How does the embassy know the AP result? Do they receive monthly report from Washington

Is there any another way for checking visa status rather than the embassy?.
 
Yes, but you should contanct them

Mango,

Usually the embassy informs the DV winner for the final result of administration process, but you should contact them frequently because they are not perfect. So, may be they forget your case.

How does the embassy know the AP result? That is their job. So, you should not care about that because they have their ways. Also, it is not always necessary they take all the cases to US.

I don't know any other ways to check the case status except through the embassy.

Thank you. And Good Luck:).

Mango123,

I didn't understand the last question:confused:.

If you are undergoing Administration Processing all what u should do is waiting patiently, and contacting them during that period. No one can give you specific time for how long it may take.

Thank you, and good luck:)
 
Dear hodhod

I mean can we file appeal of administrative processing in the consulate.

Regards

Mango,

Administrative Processing means that they need nothing more from you to bring. So, you can file appeal in the consulate if you want to open a new case.

Thank you!
 
Congratulations!!

on 09.06.2011 after 115 day under ap, i have visa in pasport.

Congratulations Civpol!!

You were lucky. You waited for just about 4 months. In my case, I am waiting for more than eight months and I am still waiting
...:rolleyes:
 
Hello

I've been selected for a visa appointment at 12 may and me and my wife get all the needed documentation prepared and reviewed by a legal representative (so everything is correct).
At the interview the officer of the embassy asked a few questions to us ; where did you met ? when you had a presentation with your family? Not much but just a few. Then she said to us that :you will be contacted by us and your visa status is under administrative process. They gave to us an OF - 194 form with the checked at Other option.

we haven't been contacted yet. Anyway what can I do if i cannot get any response till September 30? I read a lot and i found that they can check this case 60 days or even more,but am I covered by a policy or a procedure or can be just a bad or god judgement by a embassy officer? The only thing I will ask it will be just an official answer .

Shall I have that after i paid the non reimbursed fees,I mean I paid for an answer ...... have I right to get ?

Best Regards



Should we wait or to contact the consular center

Hello to everyone,

My husband and I are also under administrative processing. Buuuuuu
I just wanted to inform people that you can know if AP has cleared you can call once a week at the Department of State’s visa Information phone number in USA: 202-663-1225.
In this phone number you will be able to talk to a Visa speciallist and he/she can tell you if your process has already cleared.
Has anyone has aggod experience with AP, I mean, has anyone get it before September 3 ??? Please let me know. We has been waitting since MAY 11.
Good luck to all of us.

Actually it is a process that require a lot of time and especially depends from the case.We cannot wait to know if was cleared or not and maybe we are worried about that earlier,anyway I wish luck to everybody and the most important thing is to be calm. If they would be honored to have us in USA ok ,if not bad for them :)
 
Also under AP with wife here. Seems like marriage thing. The best you can do while under AP is contact the embassy atleast once a month(if your embassy cares to answer), call D0S atleast once every 2 weeks(+12026631225), wait patiently and pray for a positive outcome before september 30.
All the best in the pain.
