Your new life together here in the U.S. has just begun jdba, congratulations and wish you the best!

My file was not really "missing" any thing but they wanted a copy of my passports showing all entry/exit dates to Turkey. I had taken 2 trips there. Originally I sent a copy of my passport to the USCIS. But I only sent copies of my eticket and boarding pass plus receipts and pictures from my 2nd trip (in March) with my husband to his interview. I was really pissed since this is not required but this only held up his visa one week.

I know of another person who's interview June 3 and is still waiting. The embassy only told him to send "more proof". I am thankful they at least told us what to send.

I have never heard of AP before the interview. But I'm new to this. Hopefully this means you wont have to worry about AP after the interview.

All I can say is make sure you have lots of Proof at the interview. Specially if he plans to do his interview in Turkish. The Turkish lady at the embassy asks lots of questions and asks for lots of Proof. I sent 2 folders 1.5 inches thick each. Chat records,snap shots from skype, pictures, letters, cards, western union receipts, flower receipts, plane tickets, boarding passes, hotel receipts, pictures with his family, Plus pictures from our wedding. She looked at everything and asked questions about them. We practiced over 40 questions about me, my family and work. So my husband was ready. Just make sure he knows everything for the interview and is comfortable answering the questions.

My fiance had an interview in Ankara (Turkey) about 3 months ago (in April) and she was put on AP and was told to check the website. We are still waiting and checking the site every single day. There was someone on this forum that was monitoring how many of the interviewed applicants in Ankara were being put on administrative processing (AP) recently. I guess he/she was checking the interview schedule of the embassy and then checking the status of the application after the interview date. If I remember correctly, he/she posted recently in this forum that 100% of applicants were being put on AP. I wonder if he/she is still monitoring the applications and interview outcomes. Whoever you are that was doing this, if you are reading my post, could you please post an update? I am very interested in knowing what percentage of applicants (mainly K1 and CR1 applicants) at Ankara embassy are currently being put on AP. Thank you so much.

PS. I am going to start monitoring the interviews myself from now just to get an idea how everyone else is doing on their applications and interviews.

if I am not mistaken it was me. I found the CR-1 have been put in AP compare with K-1 because they have to clear them right away with K-1 they still have to apply for green card and social security

Hi everyone!

I’ve been in “administrative processing” AP status since June 2^nd in Montreal (The day I had my interview). I’m applying for an H1B visa from a reputable university in the U.S. Has anyone else applied through the consulate in Montreal. This waiting is absolutely killing me!

Thanks.

Hello all,

I have a dual US/Iranian citizenship and petitioned for an IR1 for my wife (in May 2014) whom I married back in Iran in April 2013 (over 2 yrs ago and hence IR1 rather then CR1 visa). We got the preliminay approval from Immigration and Naturalization and the case went to NVC and finally her case got assigned to the US Embassy in Yerevan, Armenia. Her interview took place on Sep. 24, 2015 but was placed on Administrative Processing (AP) and the CO handed her a BLUE sheet of paper (221g) with the following items checked on it.

1. Admin Processing

2. Medical Exam again if it the AP goes over 6 months

3. Additional proof of marriage such as photos, phone bills, etc. despite the fact we had furnished plenty of proof.

This blue sheet of paper says: please appear in person with your passport, and the missing documents anytime between the hrs of 9-5 any work day...etc. BUT DOES NOT SPECIFY if we NEED TO MAIL the missing docs before our case will come off the Admin processing or the other way around....

My question is: Do we wait until the US Embassy-Yerevan website posts our case number before my wife goes back to Yerevan with the Missing Docs plus her passport or do we mail in the docs before the case number is posted on their website. Please help.
