Salam all,

Just wanted to check with other student visa applicants from Pakistan. I got my student visa approved on May 4th 2006. I was told security clearance would take about 4 weeks, at the most 6 weeks. After 6 weeks I was told I should contact the Embassy. Well its been 2 months now and no news, the Embassy people have no idea how long it would take.

This is actually the second student visa that I will be getting. I have already returned from the US after completing my bachelors, now I will be going for my graduate studies.

If anyone has had any similar experience, I would appreciate hearing from them.

Thanks
 
I got a call from the Embassy on 2 weeks ago, they wanted a copy of my CV. I was told that I would be undergoing more security checks and this could take 4 weeks. The report date on my I-20 is Aug 15th, and I fear I might miss it.

Since my interview was held on May 4th, I am quite annoyed that it has taken them so long to realize they will be needing my CV. Has any other PhD candidate from Pakistan undergone a similar experience recently? Any input would really be appreciated.
 
is it better to apply for studet visa?
