Administrative Processing at the London Embassy

[Moda25 51]

@M S Khan After we contacted our congressman, we didn’t do anything again. We got his passport back and only waited until they got back to us. All you can do now is to wait. I was telling someone on Reddit yesterday that this is one of the disadvantages of interviewing outside your home country. For all you know your documents have been sent to her home country’s embassy for the necessary checks.

AP can't be expedited. If it's only been 4 months it's too early to file for WOM I'd say, but if it gets to a year with no outcome then it would be worth considering. 

 

Good luck. 

Thanks. is it normal to take one year for AP? If WOM is filed before one year, what happens? Does it get dismissed by the court?

Yes, it can take even longer but depends on the reason for it. Recently WOM's have been dismissed if filed too early, a search of the forum will give more info on that. Also, there is a risk that in forcing a decision to be made before the checks they are doing can be completed, may mean denial is more likely. So personally it's not something I'd contemplate for quite some time.

Thanks brother man. Any idea what kind of checks they may be doing? Security check, name checks? Any idea?

Not brother or a man actually. 😂

 

It could be anything, generally it's just background checks but that can be for all sorts of reasons. Where is your wife from?

Ah, that'll be it then - extra background checks needed because Pakistani record keeping is so bad, coupled with a higher risk of fraud as well. 

 

Hope she gets a result soon.

Nope, nothing. They have been making updates to online status for last three days but no email for us. Last update they made was today. Medical already expired. Thoughts?

That's a good sign - means they're looking at it and if there have been several unsolicited updates I'd expect a request to redo the medical soon. 

 

Good luck.
