he made some updates on his computer after the whole interview.

does anyone know why does the embassy takes so long to put a visa stamp on the passport...ever since the interview my passport is under process at the US embassy...i was told i would recieve it in 3-4 days...i am really starting to worry now as i have read a few posts here in VJ that even after the visa was approved, people were put into administrative processing...is this normal to recieve a status that says that the passport is under process at the embassy??
