Yippie!!

Just wanted to update on my little story. My husband had his interview back on January 25th at the New Delhi consulate in India. They said everything was in order but that he had to submit full fingerprints because there was a common name hit. He was under 221(g), Administrative Review, pending the fingerprint results

The fingerprints took exactly 6 weeks to come back, another week for the consulate to send my husband a "please come see us" letter and then another week (TODAY!) for the passport and special sealed evnelope to actually arrive. So almost exactly 2 months later, we are finished with AR.

Not sure when we will be able to get tickets for, but I just wanted to give others an idea of the timeframe for this time of administrative processing.

Thanks for the help and support all! :star:

Everything I respond to is from personal knowledge, research or experience and I am in no means a lawyer or do I claim to be one. Everyone should read, research and be responsible for your own journey.
