You're in AP, there is nothing you can do about it. It will be done when it's done, and they won't tell you what they're doing or how long it will take.

Welcome to VJ! I'm moving your thread from "Introducing Our Members" forum to the Waivers/AP forum. You'll be there among others who are in the same situation.

I hope that your situation is resolved soon.

So at interview you weren't given any form or anything? Just you are approved and go pick up your Visa?

What have you done so far? Have you emailed the embassy and inquired what is going on? have they asked anything of you?

Usually nothing can be done about AP but wait but sometimes you have a clue whats going on. Really sorry

I was given a paper with an address of point of collection. After that nothing. All emails have been replied with sane answer. WAIT

No reason at all its our both first marriage!! We have a 2 years old kid and after our interview CO said everything is fine and complete at ur end but some official work has to be done by her so it will take 1 to 3 months after that we'll get our passports with visas!!

But 4 th month is going to end no sign of visas my husband called them several times and they always give the same reply that case is under AP and they dunt know when its going to end
