prince143 Posted January 4, 2018 Report Share Posted January 4, 2018 I attended visa interview on 26 Dec 2017 at Hyderabad consulate. I am working as a contractor for Social Security Administration. Basic questions like Employer/Client Name, Annual Pay and my Role was asked. VO mentioned case needs administrative processing because I studied in USA(Studied in a good university which had accreditation), but no slips were given at time of interview. I checked my case online and it shows Admin Processing till today. Please let me know if someone is in the same boat. Any idea how many days its may take to process. Can I call the consulate and check for the delay? I have my journey on 14 Jan 2018(I have a week). Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Mostly Admin processing gone take min of 2 months..in rare cases if they are just checking with univ might take a week or so...And in ur case there were bunch of holidays in between and the university might have been spring break... so better prepare for worst... see the option of postponing the ticket but dont book it yet bcoz they are people stuck there for 2-3 months... keep faith and trust in god Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
