Embassy took my first interview in August 2019. And then they call me again for Second interview in October 2020. In February embassy mail me for medical examination, visa photos and  w-2 from joint sponsor. I submitted all those documents 20 days before. Today when I check my status they put me for Administrative processing. Before my status was Refused. Please tell me what is going on with my case.

Your case is has entered the administrative processing stage.  It can last for days, weeks, months, or even years.  Although most AP is finished relatively quickly, some cases from Pakistan and that region sometimes require many months or even a year (or more) to be completed.  Unfortunately, the process cannot be waived or expedited.  You just have to wait.

That is just not true for all cases. It is sometimes true.   Administrative Processing can last for many months or even years.  Extended AP is common for Pakistani cases.

I read in this month and last month also so many cases after Refused to Administrative Processing Visa issued. Because in Pakistan cases Refused to Administrative Processing is soon issued visa.
