My status still shows "Refused". I had my interview on September 13th. Should I send an email to the consulate?

@EternalWait hi, did you get your IL? Your DQ seems to be much earlier than Montreal’s published dates?

Hey, 

 

I'm in the same boat. Case last updated today.

I sent an email on Thursday and received this reply this morning:
"Hello,

 

Thank you for your inquiry.

 

We acknowledge receipt of your email. This case is currently pending review by a consular officer. As soon as the review is complete, the Visa Unit will advise of the next steps if anything else is needed to complete processing the case. Once the visa process is finalized, we will mail your passport by courier service. For questions regarding the courier service (including tracking the passport) we strongly encourage you to contact the Official U.S. Department of State Visa Appointment Service using the contact details available on the following webpage: https://ais.usvisa-info.com/en-ca/iv/information/contact_us.

We hope that this information is helpful in replying to your inquiry.

Please let us know if we can be of further assistance."

 

It just seems like a standard reply....

For the record, I'm EB1A and interview was Sep. 4th with approval on the spot.

Thank you for the update. My case was last updated Oct 1 and no changes since then. Guess its a waiting game.

Also remember to pay the green card fee before you enter the US for them to send your green card to you! Link above!

Does anyone know if once we enter the US with the one time entry visa that gets issued, can we exit right after or in a couple of days and enter again at a later point in time or do we have to stay in the US until the green card is mailed and received?

For example if I would like to come back to wrap up things back in Canada what is the best way to manage this.
