Hey there

firstly,i wud like to thank visajourney for helping us all in difficult times and long uncertain waits.

my wife is the petitioner.

I was interviewed for a CR1 visa on the 8th of march 2013 at the MUMBAI consulate , the interview was smooth and i had all the required documents,towards the end i was given a white 221 g which stated that i was put under administrative processing,which i should have expected.my passport was returned to me.

on the 28th of march 2013,20 days after the interview i got an email stating that i had a document delivered at the local VFS center,i live at hyderabad.

upon collection the document dated 25th march,it stated that my 221 g administrative processing was now COMPLETE and i needed to submit my passport to proceed the case further,which i did on the same day.

now comes the part which i am unsure about and need u guys help with.

the ceac status tracker still shows my case as being under administrative processing,it was updated twice on the 1st of april and then on the 3rd of april 2013,both times the status being shows as administrative processing.

1. can a case be put under administrative processing again after submission of passport?

2. how long does it take for a status to change upon successful delivery of passport as was done in my case.

3. has anyone experienced a secondary delay after completion of administrative processing and delivery of passport to the embassy/consulate.

ceac tracker gets it wrong, often, when a case goes into AP.

Before you do anything else, call DoS Hotline, ask for casefile status, and report it back here, aye?

Sometimes my language usage seems confusing - please feel free to 'read it twice', just in case !

i did not have any specific reason that i was sure to be put into AP because of.

it was an intuition more so based on the experience of others with a similar case as mine and were put into AP.

no reason was stated and i doubt it is routine.

i called the DOS, the guy said that my case was under AP.when i clarified i got a letter stating that AP was completed for my case and i was asked to submit my passport,the guy said ' AP is an elaborate term for a wide range of procedures '

why does this have to be so depressing.
