Issued! The interview was on December 2nd, on the 5th SEAC status changed to Administrative Processing and today, on the 7th it says Issued. Now it's carved in stone finally and I am out of any doubt

I did do a lot of front loading. I even sent them a 25 page child art style book I made (which I let the kids color) that explained our whole story with pictures instead of words.

Snakebite, they used to ship out the packets to the Embassy within about 3 days of assigning an interview date - but now it seems they hold on to the packets until about two weeks prior to interview.

I don't know why they have changed their routine - but I'm betting it has something to do with people trying to speed up their interview dates. If your packet isn't at the Embassy/Consulate, you can't ask for an earlier interview....and someone caught on!

Best of luck!

Thanks Sukie, that's basically what I'm figuring...

The unfortunate thing is, reading through past reviews at the Singapore embassy, a not insignificant number of people actually had the embassy contact them to move their interviews to an earlier date. Guess that's not happening anymore...

We'll just have to hope that she can travel to the US on Dec 23 for a vacation Christmas, a trip we planned 6 months ago. (She has a tourist visa and will mention at the interview...)

Thanks so much!
