I already called DOS & they said that your visa has been printed.i called two times & answer was same.

ok - so no news of getting it out the door and into any courier service or visa packet pickup location.

I say wait.

issued always means that the visa printer successfully spat out the visa.

There's other stuff that has to happen, after that.

In no particular order:

VISA glued into the passport.

entire casefile (I-130, I-864, DS-230, civil docs etc, medical exam) along with the passport is bundled up into a visa packet.

Visa Packet is logged.

Visa Packet leaves the IV Unit

Visa Packet arrives at the pickup location or courier service..

---

timeticks that DoS Hotline will report, when calling:

Visa Approved

Visa Issued

Visa Packet Sent

-----

So, without any 'Visa Packet Sent' status or timetick, I'm guessing the visa packet is still inside the IV unit; either there's a queue or people are actually doing work to create the visa packet.
