Any specific reason you think for ds5535? Did you have travel or employment history? Male applicant?

My application was perfect there was no reason to give me the form but I guess they just do it as another layer of check up.

Hello 

It took them 4 weeks, but it could be different in your case.

I’m assuming you got visa in 4wks after submitting ds5535

As Salaam Aalaikum Aziz,

 

Did they put your case on "Administrative Processing" status while processing your ds-5355 and before issuing you the visa?

My case shows Refused. I did receive confirmation via ustraveldocs that they have collected my docs. I assumed they are referring to my email questioner. & returned my passport.

I think so because if ds5535. There are many reason for AP. It could be missing docs, when someone uploads it. It shouldn’t take this long review it. My is DS5535, which has to be approved before moving forward. 
 

It’s been only 2 wks

 

If I file WOM, and no status of ds5535 what do you think court will do?

If its only been 2 weeks then you should wait.

Dear Aziz, I am wondering if having a long travel history can take longer for ds-5535 to process.

 

Did you have a long travel history?

 

Also, did they keep updating your case status date on ceac during the 28 days time when your form was under process?

 

Please answer, thanks.

Hi, I am in the same boat. The interview was approved but ds5535 was given in order to move forward with the application. its been 6 weeks for us. There is no date changed on CEAC at all. I believe the reason was because of travel.

 

@hbbi did you have a travel history? where and how long please ? thanks

Yes I have travelled to many countries in the past. I was given ds-5535 after the interview and its been 12 days since. Case was updated on the 9th and 10th day.
