hey guys i need to ask about something. My case CR1 is currently in Admin processing for about 4 months now. My passport is gonna expire in January 2014. My question is "when am i supposed to make new passort and send it?" The FAQ page says that passport should be valid for atleast 60 days after the expiry date of the printed visa. since this visa is usually valid for 6 months. Should I be making new passport in June 2013 ?

Looking for response from Eabbas or someone who is well versed with these things. thankyou

I would wait to see if your visa is issued by this summer, if so you should be fine, otherwise i would plan to have another made in the early fall so you have plenty of time to get it back with plenty of days before expiry.

Thank you for the quick reply ... and yes I am hoping that it doesnt come to it In Sha Allah. but the current political situation and almost daily holidays announed due to it by the embassy isnt helping either.

Your visa case is currently undergoing necessary administrative processing. This processing can take several weeks. Please follow any instructions provided by the Consular Officer at the time of your interview. If further information is needed, you will be contacted. If your visa application is approved, it will be processed and mailed/available within two business days. Under the U.S. Immigration and Nationality Act, Immigrant Visas for "Diversity Visas" cannot be issued after September 30th of the year in which you were selected to apply for a Diversity Visa. For example, entrants into the Diversity Visa Program in Fall of 2011 were selected for Diversity Visa 2012 Program, and selectees MUST apply and receive their visa prior to September 30, 2012 otherwise they lose eligibility to receive a Diversity Immigrant Visa, regardless of additional administrative processing. In addition, please note that some immigrant visas may not be able to be issued if the annual numerical limit for that category has been reached.

Islamabad is well known for putting individuals even more women now into AP... they validate your documents, verify information, do background checks, check your work, relationship even do field investigations to verify the beneficiary is eligible for a Visa to the US. As you can see from the tracker some get it within days, weeks, months or even years later. It takes time and it's up to the CO as to which checks you will undergo, they won't tell you so the only thing you can do is be patient and wait and make inquiries once a month.... You can also call DOS but they will have the same information that you get from the information on the site you posted from. If it lasts more than 5 months you can call a senator/congressman to start making inquiries and always always keep your phone on and answer numbers you don't know it could be the embassy calling or who knows.. maybe AMEX saying your visa is ready :)
