Hi,

i finished my CR1 Visa interview on April 16th 2012 in Mumbai.interview went on well and the Interviewing officer said everything looks good in my case but needs 2 additional documents ..i was given a section 221(g) white form to submit additional documents as i didn't have my birth registered.i submitted the requested documents in VFS Hyderabad to be couriered to us consulate Mumbai on April 23rd 2012.

i have a baby girl whom i have not met yet(1 month old) and my wife waiting for me and i cant wait to join my family.

how long does it generally take for the US consulate Mumbai to process the application.

whom should i contact to know the status of my case as the passport tracking VFS site shows "Your Passport is under process at U.S Embassy/Consulate." always.

Mumbai Consulate is pretty quick, and may take 3-5 Business days once they get the doc, but processing time depend up to what kind of doc they required as they have to verify the authenticity, etc etc and make final decision.

Hi Madhav,

From where you are tracking the status, because on vfs site it is for non-immigrant passport tracking.
