What did they ask for in the 221g letter and have you already submitted it?

They did not ask anything,  they took the passport,previous marriage divorce certificate and our wedding pictures.and handed the 221g form for AP.

Then it seems to be normal AP.  If you check around VJ forums, you'll see that 3 months on AP is not unusual for Pakistani visa applicants.  Many have been on AP for more than a year.  Not much you can do but be patient and wait.

There is your answer.  Administrative Processing can not be waived or expedited.  You just have to wait.  The fact that they kept her passport is good.

Unfortunately you won’t be getting back the original divorce decree.  Use this to get a replacement divorce decree.  Down the road this document might be needed.

AP is a normal for Pakistanis. Like other users have mentioned the only thing you can do is wait patiently and pray for the best. Hopefully you might not have to wait that long which usually others have to go through. Best of luck.

Thanks for the replies. I do have one more question. The embassy ask for my wife previous DIVORCE NOTICES . The divorce notice is in Native language URDU. Do I need to translate it  into english before I sent it to the embassy via Courier.? Which courier is approved by the ISLAMABAD USA Embassy to submit the documents?  your Help much Appreciated.

Embassy usually has no concern about the notices only the final divorce decree which is called talaaq nama just translate that one and FedEx is the only one that I know that you can use.

I gave them NADRA divorce certificate. They took that one.now they are asking divorce notices and talaq name, .the only thing we have stam paper which says her ex husband divorce her.hand written on stam paper.

Oh I see, this is called talaq nama the stamp paper  we have.it says on it TALAQ NAMA. We have only photo copy , will the embassy  accept the photo copy of the talaq nama and its english translation. ? I think the original TALAQ NAMA NADRA kept it when she got computerized NADRA divorce certificate.

Yes the talaq nama is some what similar like nikkah nama with union council stamp and yes photocopy will be suffice with English translation.
