Waivers (I-601 and I-212) and Administrative Processes (221g)AP + all immigrant cases?
Its true for most countries. I believe others simply have a brief name check that is done the same day.
For us its weeks months or even years

Waivers (I-601 and I-212) and Administrative Processes (221g)AP date
I believe the reason they wait till the interview is cause AP is done, only after fingerprinting, which is taken at the interview.
Also everything so far is all on paper. The CO obviously looks at a few things while in person to decide whether he approves the petition for the AP to take place.

Tough question about how many. I think all males and few females, the list is long! AP is unaccountable, however seems they are moving quicker down the list. So good luck

Waivers (I-601 and I-212) and Administrative Processes (221g)case sent back to USCIS
If a case was put on AP, that means the interview went well. Everything was fine at the interview.

They probably found something at the AP stage which made them send the case back.

Does not have to be confirmed but for further checks it was sent back.

Waivers (I-601 and I-212) and Administrative Processes (221g)What exactly goes down in the Administrative Processing procedure?
ATK- Did your hubby get the passport back yet?
L179FemalePakistan2009-08-13 06:26:00
Waivers (I-601 and I-212) and Administrative Processes (221g)What exactly goes down in the Administrative Processing procedure?
Whidbeygirl...from what I understand is for those averaging around 2.4 days.....their AP is a day or two long.
As in they probably don't go through all the checks maybe only one....
But per what my husbands friend told us was every applicant has AP even if its cleared the same day.
L179FemalePakistan2009-08-12 05:34:00
Waivers (I-601 and I-212) and Administrative Processes (221g)What exactly goes down in the Administrative Processing procedure?
My husband has a friend working at the USEM. Everybody goes through AP. Just AP for males from the MENA is longer and slower. For others it could be only a day or two/till visa is printed.
what it is...I would agree with what atk defined it as.
L179FemalePakistan2009-08-11 22:39:00

Waivers (I-601 and I-212) and Administrative Processes (221g)After 22 Long Months

Hi There!

I'm asking a question for my cousin.
He is USC and was in the Navy for 7 years. Since he left the Navy he has been living off the GI Bill Education Benefits. He makes around $1700/month and this money is tax free. He didn't file a income tax return for the past 4 years.
He is married to a B1 holder and they are applying for AOS.

What do we do about his I-864 form? He has no Income Tax return. Would a letter explaning this be enough?
Should he just leave question 25 on the I864 blank?

They already have another USC who will be a co-sponsor.

Please advise if you've been on this situation or know what to do.

Thanks!

Hello,

Our case is still under AP review but when I contacted the USCIS office they informed us, "case is being reviewed internally with the Consular Section, XXXX for visa issuance."

Does anyone know what "internally" means? How long can it take now before the issuance of visa? We have been in AP since 28th March 2010.

Thanks.


sorry to hear that can USCIS office is giving update in AP????
