F-1 (student) visa administrative processing

Hey talkers…Anybody ever been delayed by the US Embassy for a student visa through its administrative processing process? Kindly share your experiences, especially how long did it take…I am sponsored by the government and will take my wife under the F-2 visa as dependent. Watu wa kukojolea thread msitumie wifi ya boss kusumbua wazee.

My first F-1 visa took about 2 days. You have nothing to worry about if you were given the blue slip. The yellow one ndio unaeza ngoja hadi a decade. Your info is awaiting approval kutoka Washington. Be patient.

I was given the yellow one. No additional documents was just told they will contact me after a few days. It is 9 business days now

yellow mtu hungoja ten years

Unamaanisha they are stupid enough to keep your passport for 10 years hadi iexpire. Watu wengine hapa hupost umeffi tu

Thanks for the tip. I guess I will have to wait two more weeks

Hello @MjamaaPittsburgh did you finally get your F1 visa? My F1 visa has been on administrative processing for over 60 days

Yes I did.

How long was your wait?

From mid-July to late November
