[Kit k 5]

Hello, 

my husband was approved for cr 1 visa on June 4th, he was given the approval slip and asked when does he plan to go back with his family to the US. However, the online status is currently saying administrative Processing. I am so worried and don’t know y the status isn’t saying approved yet? Please if someone has had the same experience please let me know. Thanks

it can take in between 5-10 working days.

depends on person per person case and also country of embassy interviewed .

It can take days, weeks or months or even years. There is no timeframe.

Yes

but taking passport is a good sign

There are only 2 statuses for a visa application after the interview. Approved and Denied.

 

Everything else, including the processing after a visa is approved (including actually printing and sticking the visa to the passport) is done under the catch all of 'Administrative Processing'

 

It will probably last no more than a few days before changing to issued.

Hello,

 

now status has changed to ready for interview. My husband has already done the interview, but don’t know y it’s saying that? I need suggestions please !

First, the visa cannot be approved at the interview.  The visa is approved when CEAC shows "ISSUED".  You can pass the interview but that doesn't mean you get the visa.  Just like USCIS approving the petition doesn't mean you have an approved visa.  Too many people believe the interview is the last step when the last step is when the CBP officer at POE allows you to enter the country.  A few people each year are turned away at POE.  You may have passed the interview but you were not approved for the visa yet.

That is all normal.  It goes back to READY again too.

We just had our interview last friday, all went well but on AP. There was another couple on the same day interview, their status is issued right away. So i’m a little worried about our situation. 

 

What your visa status now?
