  • So you just did your interview and the consular officer told you your visa was approved and you will receive it within 2 weeks. You decided to check CEAC for status updates after two days… then to your dismay the visa status update reads REFUSED!!!! Is that a panic attack coming on? Is that your heart beating at 200 beats/min? RELAX!!! They didn’t mean it like that… let me explain. #visastatusupdates #immigrantvisa #USvisa #Kingstonembassy

    Hey so to anyone seeing this comment i did my interview on November 30,2022 and my visa was refused however i sent my mom marriage certificate on the same day to the email address instructed by the consular officer i think the quicker you send what was requested on the 221 g the better. My ceac status showed refused until January 4,2022 it changed to administrative processing and January 5, 2022 issued (if you are in the ir 2 category being filed for by your mom bring her marriage certificate)

    Hi!
    We had our immigration visa (F31) interview on 19th March 2024. The officer gave us a 221g slip and ticked some documents that she asked us to submit. She also ticked on the box which said to send passports via courier. After that our visa status showed refused. We submitted all the ticked documents on 15th April. Our case got updated on 23rd April but still showed refused. It got updated again on 25th April then on the 29th of April but still shows refused. Any idea why

      When all the documents aren’t available at the time of your interview, they have to find time to go back to review the newly submitted documents, the medical in your case. This can take up to 60 days, not saying that it will take that long, but just letting you know that you don’t have to worry that anything is wrong.🤗

Why let me redo the medical and still nothing as yet? not sure if you have an answer for that. It's really frustrating at times as I can't hear anything, and so expensive.

      I feel your frustration. How long ago did you send in all the required document? It’s a bit strange that they would have your documents until your medical expired. You don’t have to answer me this, but it’s something for you to think about, is there something in your case that they could be investigating?
