Ok. When you were called for interview why did they ask you send the passport? Didn't they take it when you have attended the interview? Can you please give your timelines?
Case created: 18th Oct 2022
Interview: 08th Nov 2022
Provided a 221(g) green form, case went into Administrative processing and passport was given back by the consular.
Status on 08th Nov 2022: Refused (i.e. undergoing Admin processing)
19th Jan 2023: Passport requested by Consulate for Visa Issuance although Status on CEAC remained 'Refused'.
07th Feb 2023: Status changed to Approved.
08th Feb 2023: Status changed to Administrative Processing
Just checked and that is what my status says, not sure why it went from Approved to Administrative Processing.
Hmm. strange. Hope they turn it back to Approved soon! Any idea what made them wait you for 2months in Admin processing without asking to submit any documents? Is this for H1b?
May i know the questions from your interview?
No, its for B1/B2.
I don't know why it took 2 months, but it is what it is. No questions asked i guess LOL.
Generic questions for interview, nothing special.
Oh man. Cool. You saved our chat here! If it was for H1b, lot of people here would have really panicked. There was holidays season in the middle,still its a long wait! Anyways good luck

It depends on what your currently do in Canada. You need to take your document presenting current status in Canada (study/work permit/PR card), pay stubs, potential itinerary, invitation letter if going to see a relative, resume/CV if you have STEM background, if student- transcript, ds 160 confirmation page, instructions letter printed from ais website, passport (the necessary documents are anyways listed on the instructions letter)

Just to come back to this. Approved for B2 visa, I was able to accompany my wife and translate for her. Interview was only 1 min long but the wait to get there was 2.5 hours.
