Also my Passport expires sooner than the expected time in which we will see any final decision from DS-5535. Anyone have experience in a similar situation?

I just renewed my passport while waiting. I emailed the consulate to let them know but didn't receive a reply.  We'll see how it goes when they eventually request my passport back.

My fiance got an email yesterday requesting his passport and a new medical. We're shocked to say the least. 

 

He was issued a DS-5535 and a 221(g) for his medical back in September. We were sure it would take a year at least to get through the process. We consulted with PIC at the end up February but decided a wait a little longer while we sorted out what we want to do. Presuming nothing goes wrong, it seems like we have gotten through the process in approximately ~200 days without a WoM.

Omg that's incredible! Big congrats.

Hi guys,

I was just wandering if anyone is going through same situation I am in for the past 7 weeks?

I had my interview January 11th 2023 in Montreal and sadly the RCMP criminal record I did in Edmonton was the wrong one which I was sent home with my passport and asked to send in the correct one with my passport when ever I get it and was told they will email me a DS-5535 form which I got, completed same day and emailed back to the consulate.

February 8th my passport together with the correct criminal record from the RCMP was delivered by to the US consulate at 10:00am

My case was lastly updated March 6th still showing Refused thou.

Today is March 30th 2023 I have been stuck in Montreal. Does anyone have an idea how long this take? My wife heavily pregnant alone at home in Minnesota.

I started the WoM with Goldstein today.  I cant wait anymore, especially with my fiances medical expiring.  I just want to move on with life.  Getting him the info asap so they can get it filed. I wish I didnt have to resort to this.  

 

AP ontop of the consulate being closed during covid is just ridiculous that they are this far behind.  

Did you get your visa stamped ?

I had my interview in April and got the DS5535 form. I had to travel and asked for my passport back.

 

On Friday I got an e-mail asking for my passport back. I think that means I've been approved.

 

I sent my passport back. Any idea how long after they receive it will I get it back?

When did you get your passport back with visa ?

@PanFriedTofu and @ak47

 

I'm in the same boat...

I sent in the DS-5535 information (specifically as a txt file like they asked for) but I don't understand what does "Passports" mean. VO mentioned that they will ask for it "if you are approved"...

Interviewed on Mar 27 and VO was super nice. I got the email next day and submitted my information 2 days later. CEAC still says refused but the update date changed after I sent in my email. So it seems like all activity with the consulate is logged (which is good).

The Great Wait 2.0 begins now...

Whoa, they want it as a .txt file now? Interesting. 

 

The 221g slip is just what’s outstanding. So supplemental questions (DS 5535), then once that’s cleared on their end they’ll ask for your passport to be sent back to them, so they can print the visa, hence “passport.”

Is anybody in a situation were they mentioned Supplemental questions with passport in 221g  to be submitted ?

That’s just the refusal worksheet. The DS 5535 is the supplemental questions, and passport is your passport, all things they will need to issue your visa.

I hope your words come true quickly!

Yes, a .txt file. In fact the VO said I could add my responses directly within the email as an alternative. I haven't worked with .txt files in ages so formatting was a pain.

 

221g slip was issued with the following:

- DS-5535 for primary applicant

- passports for each applicant

 

Funny that nothing was asked of my spouse who was actually refused a visit visa just 4 yrs ago.
