@appleblossom @M S Khan @Moda25 - I received an email today.
Thank you for submitting your application for a nonimmigrant visa.
Unfortunately after receipt of your passport, our systems indicated that additional administrative processing was required. This process can sometimes take several weeks, and you do not need to take any action. At this time your visa application has been refused under 221(g) of the Immigration and Naturalization Act.
Once the visa has been processed and printed, you will receive an email, and your passport will be mailed to you.
If you need to use your passport for another trip in the immediate future, please contact us by responding to this email.
We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, and appreciate your patience and understanding.
