Usually expiring soon means some documents are about to expire but sometimes it's just a mistake. You are in AP where they are doing name checks, document checks or

making a decision on the visa.

When were you interviewed? When the embassy called you, did they say your case is going through final processing or something like that?

Below is the name of people who submitted passport on embassy request and yet no response from embassy. It doesn't make any sense, if the visa was not ready, why they asked for passport.

Embassy does not issue immigrant visa with the expired medical. You should contact embassy and do a new medical ASAP!

My fiances expires next month so i became proactive and emailed them after what you guys said, and hinted that if they can issue the visa before that it'll be great No harm in trying... especially since they've updated the date on ceac more frequently of recent for our case.

i did inquiry through congressman to embassy and he got reply that i have to submit new medical ,today inshahALLAH i will get time to the medical center,

Hi...what happened next?? Did u get any updates??? I hope u get ur visa soon...

The first week of my interview my status changed 4 times, i had my interview September 20 so my case hasn't changed since 30 September. i don't know what is taking them so long to update their database., initially i kept checking my status each day which was making me upset alot. so now we have stopped getting myself busy at work, Probably will check once in a week hope inshallah i will get it soon my prayers are for everyone out there.

If you have already scheduled an appointment for an interview, please prepare your documents as directed in your appointment letter and appear at the consulate on the appointed date and time.

Yes it did say something like that and the next step will be AP again but do not worry I believe it's the common next step as I guess issuing the visa itself is an administrative process...!! Don't stress
