Birth Certificate? Now I do not know how it works in Egypt  but I do know it is not the US Consulate that issues a Birth Certificate.

 

Did you apply for a Passport?

Embassies don't issue birth certificates. Those are issued by hospitals or wherever the kid is born. 

 

You need to call/ emiail again and ask when PP will be done. 

 

Where was your child born? At a hospital?

There is nothing you can do. You already emailed the embassy for a status update. When I applied for my daughter's CRBA (consular report for birth abroad) they emailed me when to pick it up. I am sorry it is taking so long. Your child's CRBA and us passport IS taking too long. It should take about 4 weeks.

There you go...just wanted you to understand that the embassy has nothing to do with issuance of birth certificates.  

Call and make a new appointment to apply for PP. When you get there, inquire. I think appointments are made online.

I did apply for passport application and  social security number at the same  time  of crba appointment

Once the citizenship claim has been approved, the CRBA will be printed in the United States and sent to the address you designate in the United States or the address you designate abroad in countries where the mailing of U.S. citizenship documents is permitted unless you indicate that you will pick it up at the U.S. embassy, consulate or consular agency. Applicants are responsible for any mailing costs related to the mailing of the CRBA.

 

So, very likely the embassy has no information for u

 

Since this is done in the US,   there is a site to track your passport

and the following site if it shows "as no information:

This is exactly what happened to me during my k1 visa. My fiancé applied and in March we had our interview. They said he was approved and good to go. It’ll take 3 weeks to receive our visa and he’s been in administrative process ever since.

Today  after  more than 5 emails to the embassy,,,the agent this morning called my husband  and give him appointment to come 

 

My husband asked him why this appointment for he said just to talk about the  crba application, my husband said  should I bring any paperwork with me  he said  no  just your passport !! 

 

Can anyone tell me what's going on???
