US Visa Guy 🇺🇸 @visa_guy

@rickliving1864 @RKMannat1402 That means they are still processing your case. Keep following up with them, but there is nothing much you can do. You should hear back soon! It shouldn't take more than 2 months in total. Good luck

@rickliving1864 @RKMannat1402 Did they ask you to fill out the DS 5535 form?

Is anyone stuck in limbo after filling out the DS 5535 form?

If you're stuck in administrative processing right now, please feel free to contact me. Best of luck! #f1visa #221g #usvisa #administrativeprocessing

Please book those visa slots as soon as possible. The new immigration law allows you to apply for your F-1 visa ahead of time as long you have your i-20. You no longer have to wait 90 days before your program start date.

F-1 visa season is here! For those applying for an F1 visa for the first time, this is a friendly reminder to be prepared for the vicious cycle of administrative processing.

Is anyone stuck in 221g administrative processing? If so, how long have you been waiting? I hope your case gets resolved soon. Hang in there.

@ujohn33 You can follow up with them every 2 weeks, but usually, they hit you with the same response.

Book those visa slots ASAP. Conduct the visa interview early as possible to accommodate any delays you might experience in processing your visa.

Administrative processing, also known as 221g, is a brutal process as your application undergoes extra scrutiny and will take longer to process your visa.

F-1 visa season is on the horizon! For those who are applying for an F1 visa for the first time, this is a friendly reminder to book those visa slots early as possible! Why?? Many of you have not heard of administrative processing..

Does anyone have upcoming US visa interviews? If so, please drop your questions below to crush the interview. If you're stuck in administrative processing and have questions. Please feel free to drop them below. Happy to assist.

@AbdulLatifNas11 That happens. It's best to provide the same info that is available on the passport. You should be hearing back soon. Good Luck!

Is there anything you can do about cases stuck in "administrative processing", Section 221(g) of the INA? YES! There are many types of administrative processing delays in the U.S. visa process.

@EIenagsalvatore @vinodkumar9me47 Was it for H1-B or F-1 visa? It should have been processed by now

Although Covid restrictions have been lifted in many countries, US Consulates worldwide face unprecedented operational challenges due to staffing shortages.

@AbdulLatifNas11 It is very rare. Less than a 1% chance of denial unless you committed a serious crime or were on a watch list
