EMAILING Department of State

[MARM 7]

Has anyone with a significant other or themselves under Administrative Processing or Administrative Review tried emailing DOS instead of calling them regarding the status of their visa processing?

By using: Email DOS

Just curious if emailing DOS about a specific case gets any viable response.

You don't want to email them, you want to call them. It is immediate and you actually get an answer.

Press "1" and the "0" to speak to the operator.

They don't say much to begin with and won't answer specific questions in e-mail, which is not to different from the robotic phone conversations you are gauranteed to have with them but calling gives a chance to ask follow up questions which you can't do in e-mail. Unless you want your questions answered 6 months apart, there's no use in e-mailing and it may be that with this method you have you visa before your reply!

God bless, I hope you guys get the visas.
