What should I do about my US visa application since last year I could not get a slot due to background verification and slot closure?

If your US visa application is still under background verification (administrative processing), you should wait for the current process to complete before reapplying. Reapplying while your case is pending can cause further delays or complications.
- Administrative processing (221(g)) can take several weeks to months.
- Monitor your application status through the Consular Electronic Application Center (CEAC) portal.
- Once your current case is resolved, you may reapply if needed - make sure to address any previous issues in your new application.
Visa refused? You can still make the next intake.
