Waiting for 90+ days for clearance check after B-Visa is accepted

[aghalam]

Hi Dear Friends,

My mother is a citizen of Iran and she was granted B visa 97 days ago at the US consulate in Dubai. She has been checking the status of her visa (clearance check) ever since online and there has been no updates on her case yet. We followed up with the consulate after 90 days through email but haven't received any replies yet.
I am wondering if anyone has had any experience similar to this before and if there is any institute, or any phone number in US that we can follow up the case with or at least confirm if the case number matches with the name and passport number.
Any inputs in this regard is highly appreciated.

Sincerely,

aghalam

All she can do it wait it out. A number of federal agencies work on completing an applicant's background check. The consulate will never tell you which exact agencies are involved.
