I think yeah its a good sign . it seems like they are ready to give you the visa . thats why they asked for your passport . cause i think if they don't need it to issue the visa they would not ask for it .

Good luck and my best wishes for you .

Looks like they are ready to issue the visa shortly. They do not request a passport unless they are getting ready to adjudicate.

Everything I respond to is from personal knowledge, research or experience and I am in no means a lawyer or do I claim to be one. Everyone should read, research and be responsible for your own journey.

Hello Ken,

Going on trends in AP and your coutnry when the embassy askes for your passport it means they are going to give you your VISA. You said they asked again. This means they ahve had access to it at one other time? Have you done a lot of traveling? Sometimes they ask for passports to verify traveling records.

At first glance it looks like good news.

Yes it is generally a good sign in that is means progress. But it does not gaurantee you visa yet, you joked about travelling all over, if this is true then we have some problems with verifying those again, more time will be needed. Otherwise if you AP is cleared and your case situation has not changed too much than before, then yes you should get visa if all is cleared.

God bless,

Tam

AP: Over 1 year.

Visa: Nov 2

US Entry: Nov 13, Alhamdulillah.

Lots of travel are reasons for them to request your passport. So this could be a reason to request the passport.
