From March 03, 2020 "Refused" is the new "AP". For reference visit "https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/News/visas-news/visas-ceac-case-status-change.html".

I had all the documents about my travel history including my degrees, visas, and police certificates from each country but the counselor didn't ask me about that during the interview (I have never been deported I always leave the country weeks before my Visa expiry). After the interview she took my passport and told me to reply the email (She did not asked to submit any document). I requested her that I have all the documents  right now, but she said you have an extensive travel history and its part of the process. She also told me that it won't take as long as the other APs that's why she kept my passport.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Hope your case will proceed brother, sorry to hear.  I am curious--why is it an issue if a person has travel history?  What exactly are they checking?  Has this happened to anyone else, where if they traveled they go into "AP" / "Refused"?  How many countries is " a lot"?

Seems like they’re working on F2A’s then. Just slower I guess? But it’s better than not at all you know?

Isn’t Qatar flying out? You could also try traveling to a different city in Pakistan and take a flight from there if it’s going. I returned on Qatar even though I had a ticket for Emirates but it kept getting cancelled. I heard Turkish is also going from Karachi so maybe you could travel from there?

My travel Agent says that they are not, so i read somewhere that that's also possible, like you can ask embassy blah blah. So i wanted to know if anyone here has any experience/Info about it.

I currently see some flights for Qatar (economy) but they’re expensive. Maybe try booking online through a website rather than a travel agent? Also you could send the embassy an email and ask about your options.
