Heyyyyy just got another update as Approved!!!!! Damn I’m so relieved now
Haha. Hope you're relieved. As I said it just takes some time for them to come back after the weekend to update the status. Congratulations!! : )
Relieved is a huge understatement tbh. Finally I can focus on my work lol
This pattern of "Admisnitrative processing' and then followed by 'Refused" and then followed by "Issued" has been there from past 2years for the people who attended interviews in India. Seems like they started it here as well. Unless it says "Denied" we are good.
Hi Sujith
I think so. However, reach out to your attorney to confirm. In the meanwhile, you can go to the link below and create an account. Answer the questions and it will tell you if you are eligible to book a visa interview.

How do you think you can switch between in-person and dropbox appointments? You would have already answered the questionnaire and passed that step right
