Hi everyone,

I had my H1B visa interview in Vancouver about two weeks ago. I received a 221(g) email stating that my case requires additional processing. The email also mentioned that if they need further documents, they will contact me, but for now, nothing is required from my end.

Initially, my DS-160 status showed "Approved," but it was later changed to "Refused."

Does anyone have experience with how long this administrative processing might take? Also, is it advisable to contact the consulate directly for an update, or should I continue to wait?

Any insights would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I had an interview for my H1B visa at the US Embassy in Karachi, Pakistan, and the Visa Officer (VO) handed me a 221(g) Green Slip and returned my passport. During the interview, the VO asked me a few questions, including:

- My current company name
- Details about the company
- My work location

The VO also requested my educational degrees, which I provided in hard copy. After verifying them, the VO kept my original degrees for further verification. At the end of the interview, the VO informed me that no additional documents were required at that time and handed me a 221(g) Green Slip. Finally, she communicated that they would update me via email. Does anyone have an idea how long it will take for the next steps?
