U.S. Embassy Tokyo unresponsive

[Jason&Divine 0]

Hello and thank you for taking the time to read this. I am at the end of my rope, the embassy has had our paperwork from the nvc for a year and they still have not given us an interview date. Now every time I call they tell me they are conducting, "administrative processing." Is there anything I can do to get them to stop ducking us? Or get them to give me more information than the generic answers they have been giving? Any help is greatly appreciated. The approval notice has expired and been revalidated 3 times already and the medical form is about to expire too. I need answers and I really can't afford to keep calling them and paying 20 dollars every time, just for them to tell me to wait longer. thanks.

First thing, get a pin # for $18, it allows you 3 calls. And I have heard people who have used it many more times than that.

Call you congressman and senator and try to get them involved, if it went from NVC straight to embassy AP this is strange, are you saying you have not interviewed yet?

Are you applying in Phillipines or Japan?

If Japan you can check status here: http://tokyo.usembassy.gov/e/visa/tvisa-niv-admin.html but only if you have interview already.
