Hey everyone,

 

I had my interview for an F-1 student visa last Thursday (27 August) and the interviewer said she was approving my application (yay!). I asked her when I would get likely get my passport/visa back and she said it would probably be on Monday (31 August).

 

I have not been notified by DHL to collect my passport and more worrisome is that the CEAC visa application status is showing as "Administrative processing" with a last updated date of the 27th. How worried should I be as I was hoping to get my visa back this week so I could fly over the weekend before my classes start on Tuesday?

Hopefully you will get your visa soon.
