September - Visa Revalidation Tracking

I called them yesterday and said that my application has been pending more than 12 weeks. The rep said that it has not yet been processed and they are still processing early October cases.
Maybe you got a really unhappy Rep on the line..
 
Got it!!

Hi Guys,
I finally got the PP today. Checked and everything seems to be correct! Now we can finally make some travel plans!!

Azzuri,
I just called the DC office and asked them for a 'status update of my Passport/visa'. They asked for the primary applicants PP number (ours were for H1 and H4) . And they told me that our visas have been approved on 2nd Jan and that they had no further information from there on.. saw on FedEx tracking that the passport was actually dispatched from DC on 5th Jan. Call around 8:30..you'll have lesser waiting time. Good luck!:)
 
I got my passport with VISA stamped

Here are the details:

FedEx SL: 09/22/03
SL recd. date : 09/24/03 ( as per fedex)
DC date : Don't know..
Visa approved: 31st dec
Dispatched (fedEx): 6th Jan
PP to be recd today...: 7th jan

Everything looks fine.

Thanks a lot to all memebers in this forum for sharing such useful info.

Happy new Year to all!!

My visa was approved on Dec 31,2003 and I was informed that it is in print queue. That DC lady told me that I will receive the PP within a week or two.

That is a real good news for me.

Thanks,
Samc

H1-B and I-94

Hi!

I had sent PP for revalidation on sep 19th din't recived untill now.
My I-94 expired before my visa got expired. This happend because at the last time when i entered into this country my passport was expiring before my visa expire, at POE inspector had told me that he is issuing I-94 untill my PP is valid. After that i got my H1-B and PP(renewed) extended and even got I-94 with the H1-B approval.
I don't know what would be outcome with expired I-94 before visa expire. Please post if any one of you had similar situation and any suggestion would be help full.

I din't heard any thing from Washington, DC regarding my revalidation.

Thanks in advance.
 
Guys, please make sure that you mention the SL received date when you post your visa revalidation approvals.

thanks
 
My SL receive date 09/19/03 and DC receive date Oct 06 '03.

Hi,
I sent my passport to SL on Sept'29th, I got it approved yesterday that is on Jan8th. Actually I sent a request to withdraw my passport on Jan5th but before the withdraw request went into the system my visa got approved.
I actually called washington (@ 202-663-1225 press 1 and 0) DC three times to find the status. First time I enquired about the withdrawal process, second time they didn't give the status, but the third time they did give me the status, they said i got approved and the passport will be sent on the same day. As they said my passport was shipped the same day and I got it on Jan'9th.
You guys will also get u r VISA soon.
Regards,
NachiappanM
