Case Status Check
U.S. Embassy Dhaka is excited to introduce a brand new system for checking applicants’ case status online that will significantly simplify and improve the process for all non-immigrant visa applicants. PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS NEW SYSTEM FOR VISA STATUS CHECK HAS REPLACED THE OLD SPREADSHEET METHOD AND WILL BE THE ONLY WAY TO CHECK YOUR VISA STATUS. If you need your passport to travel or for any other reason after you submit it to the U.S. Embassy, you may collect the passport from the Consular Section only on Monday and Thursday from 3:00 p.m. to 3:30 p.m. Please bring the administrative processing letter, DS-160 confirmation page with your CEAC Application ID or your PIN ID, whichever available, and the given “token”.
For applicants who had an interview ON OR AFTER December 23, 2012:
If your visa application has been refused 221(g) and requires
additional administrative processing, you can now check the status of
your visa case from the Consular Electronic Application Center (CEAC)
page https://ceac.state.gov/CEAC/
at any time. We recommend that you check your case status frequently.
To do that, you need to enter your CEAC barcode ID number and the
interview location (Dhaka) as requested on the website. The CEAC barcode
ID number is located on the upper right hand side on your DS-160
Confirmation page which was returned to you at the interview. After the
interview, your case status will show as “Administrative Processing.”
You do not need to contact us while your status remains in
“Administrative Processing.” If we need any further information from
you, we will contact you. How to Search:
