If your friend is medically fit, then I guess there should be no problem then. It will be only a matter of days before he gets his visa. Best of luck to him!!!!
 
is there chance of medical report being lost in embassy......IOM says they have delivered the report and embassy says the've not got till yet....whats the reason??/

How can we tell you what was the reason the medical has been lost. Get another one, it is not a big deal. The thing that matters the most is getting the DV visa, so go for another medical test!!!!

When you send an email inquiry to the embassy, you status gets updated. But, sometimes your status is updated even if you have not sent them an email inquiry, this is where the good news comes in. It shows that they are working on your case, and they have opened your case. I am happy because my status got updated while I didn't send them any emails.

Dear jarmsbi,
Thanks to share your AP status updates and prediction of visa issue, really we are hopefully waiting to the good news now.

Folks,
My interview was yesterday and the consular told us our visas have been approved and kept our passports. Also asked to paid a delivery fee for the passports to be mailed to us once the visas are printed and ready. However; when I go to ceac.state.gov/CEAC/ to check the status of my application, it says Administrative Processing. Is the THE administrate processing you guys are talking here about or is it something else? I've noticed at the beginning of this thread other folks gotten some kind of a letter explaining what administrative processing is, but i've got none.

Hey creature,
i think this is THE admin proc. that everybody talks about here.

This happened to us too, we needed to give 1 tiny missing info (sent by email a few days after the interview), so they kept our passports. I checked about 10 times every day :) if there was any changes on ceac website, but for about a week there was only "administrative processing". However I got an email from the embassy few days later I provided the info, saying that our visas should be issued that week. Another few days later they changed "administrative processing" to "ready" and another couple of days later to "issued". And 13 days after our interview we received our passports with the visas inside. This happened in London.
So chin up and don`t worry, they don`t rush, it will change soon to "ISSUED".

Congrats anyway!

Thanks for this wonderful piece of information my friend. It has certainly add to our knowledge. I hope creature has got the answer to his query. Best of luck to everyone!!!!
 
Thanks zsofeeb. Yes, you were right the statues were changing as you said and this morning I've got "ISSUED". I think the "Administrative Processing" status appears on CEAC when the consular hands the case back to their back-office workers with a note/instruction in the system what they are supposed to do with it, e.g. chase more documents, check with other Gov agency and of course print the visa.
