Alexandria, VA asked in Immigration Law for Virginia

Q: Visa case status was changed from refused to ready but interview was weeks ago.

Hello. My husband had his immigrant visa interview at the us embassy in the Bahamas. His case was refused for administrative processing. He was asked to send his passport to the embassy a few weeks later and now his case status is updated to ready. What does this mean as he already had his interview? Thank you.

A: It is not possible to advise you for sure. However, when the passport is requested it is usually so that the visa can be placed in the passport. Were arrangements made for returning the passport or picking it up at the consulate?
