You have no way of verifying if the AP was real or not. AP is not just about missing documents. Pending background check clearance also results in AP. Yes, additional checks gets conducted at the end of the interview (with the captured biometrics during the interview). It wouldn’t be unusual for some cases to get stuck in AP because of this.
I mean they were not told anything about additional checks. CO told them everything was ok and wished them good luck traveling to the USA.
The COs do not tell applicants about additional checks, however conducting the additional check is standard practice, regardless of what the CO says at the end of the interview.
But if it took “forever” to get their stamped passports it does imply there were further checks going on. COs do not tell applicants everything they will need to do and also they do sometimes discover things after the interview, we have seen a number of cases where people are told things look fine then go on extended AP or even sometimes denied.
Hello,Hi Everybody! (CN: 2021eu36xxx)
I just got an e-mail from the KCC that I'm DQ!
To be honest I lost hope this week, but what do you think is it still a chance to be interviewed till the end of September?
Thank you!

@Britsimon check this mess out! Scheduling people with 11 days notice! Lol
Better than no interview at all…
No, I didn't contacted them. They have asked for the docs approximately a month ago, and today I got the DQ. Hope soon will receive the 2NL too.
Oh lol, thank you for citing BritSimon, proud to be immortalized as an example in a BritSimon's video afterall hahaha.
Hello, did you actually mean EU36XXX and not EU36XX? I am EU29XXX and I still have not been DQ. They did not even asked me to send the documents (even though I did). This is so weird...Hi Everybody! (CN: 2021eu36xxx)

With the excitement forgot to say that if they're setting up interviews with so close notice, I'd still have faith in getting interviews for the rest of September. Just FYI, I was DQ the 6th of August.
Is your embassy interviewing DV cases, do you know?Hello, did you actually mean EU36XXX and not EU36XX? I am EU29XXX and I still have not been DQ. They did not even asked me to send the documents (even though I did). This is so weird...
Indeed - still hope, even though unfortunately there won’t be time for everyone left to be interviewed.
I ment what I wrote eu36xxx. It doesn't matter anymore what your CN is, god knows what is the logic behind the system. But don't give up, if I succeed, you can too!Hello, did you actually mean EU36XXX and not EU36XX? I am EU29XXX and I still have not been DQ.
