H4-visa 221G blue slip Ottawa Would like to know if some one has similar experience
Hello All...I received email from US Consulate office yesterday and I turned in my passport today morning in person for stamping.
Things to note:
-Do not wait for CEAC website to say Issued if it still shows you Admin Processing.
Even this morning after turning in my passport, it says Admin Processing for me.
-If your "Status updated Date" changes than "Case creation Date" only then call on this number 001-613-238-5335 at consulate office to check the updated status.
In my case, they already emailed me saying my visa was approved few days ago but I never received an email. Upon requesting they resent me the email.
Hope this helps you all.
Good luck and be patient.

@pmpm: Did you already received your passport?
Congrats viv.bravo..What phone number is that? Its to check passport delivery status? I dropped my passport yesterday and do not see a waybill number yet on the website. So they sent 2 emails to you? One about approval and one about submitting the passport? I am little nervous if my visa was approved or not, as I got only one email asking me to submit the passport. Did not get any other email stating the decision they made on my visa.

Hi viv.bravo
Congrats. Its good that you called them instead of waiting for e-mail to come. My e-mail also mentioned that my visa is approved and CEAC is still saying Admin process. I guess once passport gets the stamp, status will change to Issued.
I am surprised that you went in person for stamping, is it for H1 specific? coz the lady at consular service said NO to me when I asked to submit my passport in-person.
By any chance will you be getting your passport back straight from embassy (in person) or thru Loomis? Kindly let me know

This number is for general enquiries US Embassy, Ottawa. After this I always ask for consular services, where a nice lady answers the enquiries.
pmpm, if you don't mind, can you tell me if the email specifically said the visa is approved or it said "We can now conclude your application for a nonimmigrant visa.It may take an additional workweek to prepare your visa after we have received these items. " ?? Can you be specific on the email content that said your visa is "approved"?

Hi Viv.bravo
Could you post what your e-mail said about visa approval. My e-mail said:
We are pleased to inform you that your visa application has now been approved. We will require you to provide us with your passport as quickly as possible.
No I am waiting for Loomis to send me an e-mail for pick-up, as per the instructions on the mail (We will return your passport to the Loomis location you selected in Canada).

Yes you're right, I received an email about waybill number today.
Hi viv.bravo
Ystdy evening I received mail from Loomis with way bill number. Today passport is ready for pickup.
Hope you have got your passport back too.
@ Josephsn: Did you get any update?
@txsresearcher: Any update? You gave very correct info from the start, it took almost 30 calendar days...Thanks
All the best and thanks to you all guys for the updates.
Hello All,
For all waiting for admin process to be cleared, please keep checking with the consulate using phone number that I posted earlier.
My case was cleared a week ago, but CEAC website kept showing Admin Processing. Only after calling them, they mentioned that for some reason the email wasn't sent to me saying the process has been cleared.
However, I got my passport stamped in 2 days and now I'm back to states.
My heart reaches out to everyone who are still facing this situation.
@josephsn and txresearcher...were you able to get in touch with the consulate office?
@pmpm...did you get your passport back?
