You can go online and track your visa. Also you can call DOS and see if visa has been issued. Normally it takes 2 weeks or longer, depends upon how long you are in AP.

We have been waiting since January 15, 2013....checked the status of the visa on the site at https://ceac.state.gov/CEACStatTracker/Status.aspx?eQs=o/iS8zDpeAKjMWCuebHqOw==

it says it was updated February 5, 2013 and was issued and printed and should be available for pick up soon but I called the US Department of State at (202) 663-1225 early this morning and the man I spoke to said it was still being processed. I asked so it's in Administrative Processing? He said yes but only because they haven't printed it yet. I told him the site to check visa status said it was printed and he confirmed that no it was not. He made it clear that the only thing holding us up still was that it was not printed and they were waiting for the Kingston Embassy to print it but that there was no other issue or reason it was still being processed. So frustrating as well as confusing since the site says printed and the live person says not printed! I asked the man what we can do to speed up the printing process since it's already practically been a month and he said best thing is to keep in contact with them, so I wonder if the more you call the DOS it brings your specific case to their attention and maybe can potentially get things moving faster....he told me to call back next week...another week goes by uhhhh! While this process is beyond frustrating and extremely difficult it gives me a little relief to know my fiance and I are not the only ones in the same boat...try to hang in there....our system is so broken and does not serve its citizens as it ought to...I think I'm going to start voicing my opinion to our government leaders so they can "reform" the system in a way that really changes how they deal with it's citizens and our foreign relatives...I'm an RN and one vital attribute as an RN is compassion and holistic thinking, this is how we should be treated when going through the immigration process as well, I mean our lively hood and future depends greatly on the decisions made by immigration yet they treat us like we are just another case number or file instead like human beings who have emotions...this process brings a lot of stress on us that can and does really effect our ability to cope day to day....something got to give

I think when they update it is means someone has looked at the file so it is most likely a good thing that it has been updated recently, it shows movement of the case...

Some visas have taken up to 2 months. It is random why it takes so long.

Not sure, I never checked using the embassy website. I only checked DHL website, and called DOS daily.
