oh wowwww COngratulations L179 I am sooo happy for you..Since they kept his passport I am waiting for them to call to pick up the passport. I emailed embassy asking about it and they said "Please wait for our call" oh please lets just get it over with.. I want my husband here NOW!!!

ALI... any updates on your side?!!? probably he is gonna post from USA now :-)

and oh by the way, what are the ticket prices you are getting?

Few days ago, I explored a few options online and looked like Qatar was the cheapest at 54K but then I dont know how hubby can buy that online so I have told him to buy the ticket from Islamabad the day he picks up the passport

Alhamdulilah this is all great news, every week there is good news about the AP timeframe shukur alhamdulilah! .. I wonder how AP works, does it get done by the order of the interview date?... I doubt anyone has the answer to that question lol

I have a question, did the DOS update their website on administrative processing? I remember them saying most AP resolves within 60 days, and the applicant should call after 90 days. Now that I checked the website, I'm seeing something new with teh IMPORTANT NOTICE

Waiting4Approval & L179 - Which city would be the POE ??

[FEISAL 3]

Hopeful786 - Yes I believe they have reduced the time for contacting DOS from 90 to 60 days - which is good i suppose

Hi , i have been a silent reader of this post for a while. Reading about all the AP stuff. my parents had their immigration interview also august 21, 2009. wel, no surprise but my 70 year old dad was put on Ap. they didnt give my mom the visa either, saying that she would have to wait for my father. does any 1 have any idea how long they take for older men to get over AP.

YEYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY for ALI and L179....

Many many congrats......Alhamdulilah ISL is moving now...

Hopeful:No AP doesnt clear up in order of interview,it just depends on whatever and how many things they want to look in to after ur interview.ALI and my hubby had interview same day,same officer.My AP was over on August 6th Alhamdulilah and ALI's today....

Zee:AP timelines @ ISL is improving so u can say average of 1-3 months...Best of Luck
