Anyone still waiting in Administrative processing Amman

[Meli022 39]

Hey all,

My husband had his interview Oct 31 2022 and was subject to AP. We weren't missing any documents. I've attached the letter he received. We sent in the info within hours of his interview. CEAC has updated 4 times but we've been stuck since Dec 12th with no update. Just wanted to see if anyone else was in the same situation at this embassy.

 

Thanks!

Looks like DS-5535.  Hopefully your husband's visa will be issued soon 🤞

Thank you for responding I wasn't sure if that's what it was or not!

Sorry you’re going through that  I thought your husband got the visa by now. It can take some time… I’ve seen it take 5-7 months in Amman. I also saw it take over a year with a Palestinian female beneficiary (living in Palestine but interviewing in Amman).

Thanks for responding! It's so annoying. We had a baby in September and he's just missing out on so much it's so depressing. Hope you're doing good and continued good luck on your journey 💜

Hello. I was put in AP today, they gave me my passport back with the same DS-5535 questionnaire. Any updates for you?

Nothing. No updates in CEAC since 12/12/22. I've emailed a million times I just get the same generic response back. Phone lines at embassy and NVC still shut down. It's a ###### joke. I'll definitely keep you updated. Sorry you were put into AP. It's ridiculous. What's the timeline on the bottom of your DS paper? Ours said 2-6 weeks. That's clearly not correct. Curious if they have updated it or not

Have you tried a congressional inquiry?
Says 2-6 weeks, but I know there’s no fixed timeframe. It’s so devastating.

Yes congressionals don't seem too work for AP. I even know someone who works at the department of state and theirs nothing they can do. I agree it's devastating. I finally have a passport appointment for our baby this week. So whenever we get that back I'm gonna have to go there. I haven't seen him in 9 months and he obviously hasn't met his daughter yet. Its so frustrating. Wish we knew the reason for the AP.

I don’t know what to say, the way your family is separated is horrible. I hope this ends for you soon and you all get to live as one unit 

US Embassy Amman’s website says 5 months, so maybe it’ll be over for you soon.

Thank you I really appreciate that. I'm sorry for you too. Are you able to be together or no? I lived in Jordan with him for two years but then moved back to America. I was flying there every 3 months for a while but then got pregnant. Last time I was there was last May-June and haven't been able to get back with work and the baby not having a passport. Had no idea the embassies website said 5 months I'll have to check that out right now. Thank you for that!

Could you send me the link about the 5 months thing?? I'm not finding it under visas! Thank you!

[Meli022 39]

I found it lol hopefully their "average" is correct!

Any update on this? Been waiting in administrative processing since August 2022. Contacted the embassy again and again to no avail. Anything we can do?
