Just trying not to worry, husbands interview was on friday(approved), status changed to issue this morning, just hoping it doesn't take too long for the courier email as we've also booked our flights for the 18th!

Probably the most typical scenario after Issued, is two days later courier email, then delivery next day, allowing for weekends when necessary.

OH BOY!

 

I had my interview last Wednesday (29th) and was approved. On the ceac site my status is still "ready". the date of last updated keeps changing but the actual status hasn't changed at all! My flights are booked for next Friday (15th dec) AND i'm getting the documents delivered to my home address in NIreland... looking like i'll be cutting it very fine in terms of getting my passport back! totally don't understand how they work in the US Gov. Someone had their interview on Friday and has an issue already, mine was two days before that and still nothing??? do they just pluck cases at random?

My medical results arrived later on in the day after my interview which was on Monday 4th Dec 2017. I was told it was approved waiting on the medical results. on CEAC it still says 'administrative processing', I hope it doesn't take long.

Just wanted to give a quick update and say that I've now received the email saying my husband's visa has been sent, and should be ready to pick up from Southampton tomorrow!

Thanks! I'm literally gona cross everything possibly crossable to get my passport back in time 😂 getting super panicky about it now!! It needs to be issued tomorrow... Friday at the latest for me to even have a chance of getting it on time for my flight. They've accessed my case at least 3 times going by the "last updated" so I've no idea what they're doing lol

As far as I'm aware the embassy don't take calls lol I phoned the number listed for them and it was an automated message followed by a list of options not relevant to what I need to ask... I guess I just have to keep waiting and desperately hoping that it's on its way and will get here on time.

Ahh! Finally some movement! 😁 My case has updated to administrative processing which I'm sure is the step before turning to issued? There's still hope! 🎉🇺🇸
