I just hope we all hear the good news very soon. But if any on you hear the good news than to plz keep us updated.

Hi, welcome to the forum. Nice to see someone from afg. I got few updates after it hit 60 days mark but it is still in AP. Wish you good luck.

Hi, 

I guess I'll join everyone else. My fiancé had his interview August 24th at the US Embassy Freetown, Sierra Leone and was given the ds-5355 form to return the following Monday between the hours of 3pm-4pm. He returned the form that Monday and it was updated that day (the 28th) and then again the 29th. Nothing has changed since then. The consular wrote on the 221g that the process can take up to 90 days. They did return his passport which expires in May 2018, but the return of the passport scares me, as I've heard that's a bad sign. I don't know if it's because we need at least 6 months validity on the passport or what. This AP really scares me and it's what I dreaded the most because of horror stories. Any advice given is appreciated! TIA 

It is a waiting game after the interview. Be patient and expect to wait at least two months. Wish you all the best.

Hi! He's not from Afg, he is from Sierra Leone (West Africa).

I pray it's handled within a couple of months, I've heard people being in AP for years. I'm going to hold the CO to her word that it will take up to 90 days

No changes for my case. During the interview, they asked him a lot of questions concerning his family that's here in the states. On the form, it ask about siblings so I'm starting to think he was given this form so they can research his family. I don't know, just trying to remain sane 😃

It doesn't matter where he is from.  On NVC website it says that AP last at least two months. It could be longer depending on the case. Good luck.

Interview was 8/9. CO didn't keep passport either but this embassy does this when they expect delay and then call you for passport
