hi everyone..

im so sad today

i made my interview on last week on the 16th, and the consular asked me what are u doing here in kenya and why u didn`t make the interview in EGYPT ? ( i answered it) then he said sorry i will send ur case to the U.S embassy in Egypt where u should have ur interview beacuse i don`t know anything about the egyption culture, then i said NO please i can`t go back to egypt and i explained to him why i can`t go back to EGYPT, he was too nice and understood my situation and he said ok have sit for minute, then he called my name again and started interviewing me, he asked me a few Questations and he asked for proofs i showed him all the evidence (my evidence was good) even he made fun of a photo of me and my wife together, and eventually he gave me white paper and told me, track ur case from here and we will send u the visa within a week i smiled big smile to him and i thanx him allot, then he said ( enjoy ur time in the states ) then i left to home happy and after 5 days, lady from the embassy called me and told me ur case is going under administrative process, me and my wife got shocked then we contacted the DOS to check our case they told my wife, madam ur husband is case pending under security check....

so how long this security check might take at the DOS ?

Hi, The Administrative Process can take from 2 weeks to 7 months. This happens to many people. When they're finished reviewing your case and they see everything is good they approve you. You will be hearing from them.Did they keep your passport?Don't be sad this is normal.

To add: If they find a problem they will call you and if they didn't keep your passport they will call you to bring it apon your approval. Some people get a call within a week. Let's pray for the best! Good Luck

bro u mentioned that after they finished the security check they will decide to approve or deny me right.. but the consular already approved me at the interview and he took my PASSPORT, so what do u think ?

Keeping the passport is Good! You might be getting a call soon to pick it up, probably less than a week. I'll be on yahoo later this evening, I'll look for you there. Cheer up things will be OK

It's completely normal in many countries... a pain in the butt... but normal. Just sit tight and wait, that's all you can do for now.
