[adillabbas 0]

i would like to ask you as few days ago the co Andrew called my wife and take her interview over the phone and in the end he told my wife dont worry everything is fine with your and dey dont need any further documentation as the time of interview dey ask for a joint sponsor as we prove we are above poverty now they said we dont need nething else and your husband is going thru last check which is name check when today my wife call the Dos a lady said its in administrative review

First Time Calling Dos : Standard Review

Second Time : Pending Administrative Process

Third Time: Administrative Review at embassy level and she said they havent put your case in the name check as the co said everything is fine and now ur husband going thru last process which is name check

so can any body tell me what dat mean??

and are they checking the case at embassy level when everything fine then they send my case to Washington for name checks or it will be done at embassy to issue the visa after they find no record in the name check please need ur answers thanks.

Today I called at Conuslate and talked with Operator regarding my AP, as per him all AP+AR being processed in DC, so i believe mine and your case will be sitting on someone's table, could be someone who is little lazy . I had the same on answer on my day of interview , Everything is fine we don't need anything, Your interview is completed all we need is to do some office work and today is 73rd day.

They told me ( im adils wife) at dos today that our case is in admin review @ embassy and they havent received info for name checks

Can embassy do the name checks and if nothing come back (no record ) then they can issue visa? And if it comes back with hit then they sent to washington?? Would dos then have that info or would they have it either way? Im sooooo confused!!!!

Sister this whole process is pretty confusing, Swear everytime you call them you hear new things from them & to be very honest DOS doesn't tell anything, even if you try to ask something else they act rude, so Just pray to ALLAH as he is the one who listen everything, and insha allah this whole thing will end soon. Insha ALLAH.

yeah we do but im going by what the embassy told us...but then even if name checks were done at the embassy first would dos have knowlwdge of that? N im sure if it came back with a hit then they would sent onto washington for full checks?? Just wish i understood the process clearly inshallah this will be over

The secret is waiting and waiting. take a breath. You did not get a no.

Keep the faith and have hope. Each day that passes is one day closer to the prize of your family being together! I wish this process was easy to understand too but it seems each case is so very different that I think it must also be difficult for Embassy to say EXACTLY what is happening because they can't be sure what they will find.

If you have done all that you can and all documents, questions and information has been provided then I think you should rest assured that you have done all you can and now is in Allah's hands.

I do know these facts: 1) summer time makes the most busy time for Visa's all around the world 2) August is the most busiest travel month of the year. So it seems to me that nothing is wrong with your case at all, just that there are sooo many names being checked across all embassys and consulates that they are doing their very best to keep up.
