If the interview went well then nothing to worry.

It happens all the time.

CEAC status will show AP for 3 days post interview then it will change to READY for about 2-4 days, then it will again show AP for a day then finally you will see ISSUED at CEAC website.

The number of days it stays on perticular status can vary case to case.

The statues goes from AP>>READY>>AP>>ISSUED

Don't panic nothing is wrong. They say 3-5 days but it takes longer to process most of time.

it usually means they need to review the documents and confirm the decision. Then they need to print the visa and attach it to the passport, followed by whatever method that consulate uses to return the passport and envelop to the beneficiary.
