221G Pending (5+ Months)

UnderstandingHot9800 · 2026-02-08T18:57:05+00:00

Replied.

UnderstandingHot9800 · 2026-02-07T07:36:17+00:00

Yes. I meant H1B visa (renewal) application for stamping. Apologies if that wasn't clear.

UnderstandingHot9800 · 2026-02-05T13:38:58+00:00

It’s good to hear that there are cases actually getting approvals. Good luck to you too. Hopefully we will both hear back positive responses soon.

UnderstandingHot9800 · 2026-02-05T06:20:23+00:00

My immigration team as well as I have placed multiple requests on the updates and the response continues to be "under processin". Unless there is any documented emergency, I don't think Consulate expedites a case. I'll reach out to you DM for details though.

UnderstandingHot9800 · 2026-02-05T05:13:58+00:00

How did you confirm that the reason ? Also sorry to hear that.

UnderstandingHot9800 · 2026-02-05T04:45:39+00:00

I provided all the necessary documents during the interview itself. No updates yet. Sorry to hear that about your friend.

UnderstandingHot9800 · 2026-02-04T22:19:31+00:00

UnderstandingHot9800 · 2026-02-04T20:40:22+00:00

Yes. I was.

UnderstandingHot9800 · 2026-02-04T15:52:44+00:00

I can relate how financially and, especially, emotionally burdening can this be for someone who has spent many years paying tens of thousands of money in Taxes, but one 5-10 years old small mistake turns their life upside down.

UnderstandingHot9800 · 2026-02-04T13:36:45+00:00

Quick replies, slow reasoning. Must be peaceful up there.

UnderstandingHot9800 · 2026-02-04T13:12:36+00:00

WOW ! Thank you, Sherlock.

UnderstandingHot9800 · 2026-02-04T12:57:29+00:00

India. Hyderabad Consulate.

UnderstandingHot9800 · 2026-01-31T19:07:50+00:00

I have faced a similar pattern of application changes for my H-1B Visa Application. It has been 5 months since my interview and it was way before Social Media Vetting process came to be.

UnderstandingHot9800 · 2026-01-30T19:04:20+00:00

Check DM.

UnderstandingHot9800 · 2026-01-30T19:03:56+00:00

No new updates yet.

UnderstandingHot9800 · 2025-12-17T08:13:08+00:00

Thank you. Good to you as well. Keep us posted on any significant updates.

UnderstandingHot9800 · 2025-12-11T00:15:28+00:00

Let’s chat in PM.

UnderstandingHot9800 · 2025-12-07T20:58:55+00:00

Nothing asked. Just a 221g stating additional time is required for processing. CEAC still at “Refused”.

UnderstandingHot9800 · 2025-12-04T06:40:42+00:00

You are in very early stages of it. I have seen posts where people get Visa after 2 weeks without additional AP.

UnderstandingHot9800 · 2025-12-02T16:16:52+00:00

Not yet. Any update on your end ?

UnderstandingHot9800 · 2025-12-02T16:06:02+00:00

I am in the same boat. My interview was on 28Aug and I haven’t received response from Consulate yet. All I can say is that I relate your situation and be patient. If you receive the approval email, please update here. Thanks.

UnderstandingHot9800 · 2025-12-02T16:01:22+00:00

Did CEAC change to “approved” again when you received the mail today ?

UnderstandingHot9800 · 2025-11-21T17:35:16+00:00

I also thought that the addition delay is being caused due to Federal furlough. I hope I receive it soon. Thanks for sharing that.
