Are you worried if your fiancés job change might have affected your application or what? Your question is not clear..but if that's what you are wondering, NO it won't have any bearing on the application. It might be taking a while because they are currently back logged so just wait a while and you should be fine.

Yep OP, it is the waiting game, not your fiancé's job change. Do not let it drive you crazy

hello,

first of all I want to say sorry that I didn't give you clear question. yeah of course I'm so worried that my fiance has changed his job might affect our application because I've got approved since Jan 30th but I haven't got visa in my hand , plus Ive been checking ceac website, all what I see is still in ready :( on another way I haven't got email from embassy either. I'm going crazy right now :(

Don't worry heng heng, you are jut in a stage called Administrative Processing. You are approved you just need to wait as they finalize your paperwork. My fiance was approved on January 8th but she did not get her visa until almost 3 weeks later.

Yes, Administrative Processing is usually what delays a visa after approval. It can happen for any number of reasons, but normally it's due to backlog. For us it was because my fiancee's medical report was not forwarded to the Embassy until the day of the interview. The CO told her "All looks good, you are approved, we just need to wait for your medical records, call us in 10 days if you do not get your visa in the mail."

Well 10 days passed and we really got worried, but the Embassy assured us that they were experiencing some backlog and apologized for the inconvenience. 9 more days later she got her visa and came to the USA on January 27th.

So have hope. if the CO said you were approved, you are approved, and simply have to wait. I know it's heartbreaking being away from the one you love, but soon you will be together! Good luck! Keep us posted!
