Hello everyone, sorry I am not on AP but had a question. Does anyone know how to get interview date rescheduled with the Islamabad Embassy?

You can find the contact form / email address on the isloo embassy site here:

 

https://pk.usembassy.gov/

 

and inform them about your situation to reschedule. I think that might work.

I think they replied me in 4,5 days so it might take a while. But they do reply back usually.

I had my interview for IR-1 class on 9th January and the interview went well and the CO told me that I am good to go and I will be receiving my passport in 1-2 weeks. My status on the CEAC says Administrative Processing is it normal to have it after interview? Since I did not receive any 221G or any list I wanted to know how many days does it take to get the Issued status?

Hello. Does everyone from Pakistan have AP?

Everyone from everywhere has some form of AP after the interview as documents are checked and visa foil applied.  The question is how long?   It can range from a day to years. 

 

Pakistan is hard due to the inability to authenticate documents quickly and to verify backgrounds.

Ok thank you. Is there anything to prepare ahead of time to make it easier?
