It has been more than 2 weeks since I submitted I864A  as per Islamabad embassy request. My case date updated twice after submitting requested documents. The last update was on Oct29th, but not status changed yet  (still showing refused since interview).  Does anybody know how long the embassy take to issue the visa after receiving the required documents?

Hi All,

I had my F4 category interview on 15th November 2018. A lady who was interviewing me was humble and asked basic questions which i replied very well. After that she told me that your Application is completed and we do not need anymore thing to see now you can go back we will tell you by email if we need something and gave me white form of sec(221)g on which she checked the line on which this is mentioned that your case is under AP. Same day i received email from them asking about some questions invluding my previous passport numbers, travel countries if any, sibling names and Date of births, social media platforms which i used, my phone numbers in past 5 years etc... do anyone have idea about this situation???

yes they kept the passports, they did not ask anymore documents from us, only sent questionnaire for additional information next day via email. We were told that it will take 4 to 6 weeks. It has been about 3 weeks now. Hoping for the good news soon, Insha Allah

I am way past 60 days and have filed online inquiry thru Islamabad embassy form twice for my dad. Mom was approved but not issued visa and dad application had ds5535 email request which we furnished in the 12 of sept. After five updates ( last being 18 October) no updates have been published. My question is has any one been able to get in touch with the embassy directly? I tried multiple times but no luck yet.

We sent the inquiry to islamabad embassy and got the standard reply that the case is under administrative process. When the senator sent the inquiry on our behalf they also got the same reply that the case is still refused under admissions process. There is nothing else we could do

As pre Islamabad embassy request we submitted  I864A  from joint sponsor on Oct 22nd. Sent an email inquiry to embassy on Nov 13th and received this email on Nov 20th. Our case stauts still showing Refused since interview. ( after interview we were told by CO that we will get our Visa in 2 weeks after submitting required documents). I don't know how long embassy will take to review our documents. FYI our case never went to AP.
