I am in the Same boat as you. I submitted my passport as well as my moms for renewal. This was our second renewal. The B1/B2 visas expired June of this year. I submitted both passports for dropbox on the 22nd November. i checked CEAC website for status update and it says case opened 23rd November and case last updated 23rd November. I then sent an email to passportstatus@ustraveldocs.com to check the status from there and response was THERE IS NO STATUS UPDATE FOR THE PASSPORT NUMBER SUBMITTED. today is 13th December and i am worried as to what is happening.

Start checking from 23 dec
I submitted 5th November and my status changed 6th December and I recieved 10th December

Hello house, please I need some clarifications. My passport will expire come July next year can I renew my visa this December/January? Even though my intended date of travel is July next year or renew my passport before visa renewal?

It's pertinent to say here to All that dropbox / renewal doesn't automatically mean you will not be called foe an Interview. Embassy site says you 'may' be called for an interview. Its their choice to waive the interview or not.

Just prepare for an interview...others have shared their experiences so just search.

Go to google type dropbox interview nairaland

A number of search findings will show up

That depends on the interview date or not .
I believe your passport that you travel with needs to have at least 6months validated before you travel

Is anybody aware about any airline with cheap ticket or any promotional offer to US. I have searched and the fees are high.
