My wife had her interview on the 29th of May and was told that she is approved and given a pink slip but was told that she will receive her visa in 30 to 60 days after administrative processing done in washington. My question here is how can I track the progress of this?

Assalam alaikum Khurram bhai

Does admin processing happen for all visa applicants? Is it possible to get a visa without having to go through the admin processing? My wife will also be doing a K-3 in Islamabad

thanks

Walaikum salaam

I know it happens with all men and some women in Islamabad, but lately I haven't seen women get a visa without admin processing either. Don't you think if it was there was a way to prevent it my wife wouldn't get admin processing ;)

Khurram Bhai,

Kya Haal Hay, Ki khobor? Anyway, don't worry about AP. The Embassy will call your wife when the AP is done. It can happen between 2-8 weeks. Hope you get the good news very soon. Bhabi will call you any day to give you the good news.

I-130 Timeline with USCIS:

It took 92 days for I-130 to get approved from the filing date

NVC Process of I-130:

It took 78 days to complete the NVC process

Interview Process at The U.S. Embassy

Interview took 223 days from the I-130 filing date. Immigrant Visa was issued right after the interview
