Administrative Process Takes 3 to 6months Below is an extract from the US government website

"Visa Wait Times

Advance travel planning and early visa application are important, since visa applications are subject to a greater degree of scrutiny than in the past. If you plan to apply for a nonimmigrant visa to come to the United States, we know you’d like to estimate how long you will have to wait to get an interview appointment to apply for a visa. See our “Visa Wait Times for Interview Appointment” information below.

It is important to thoroughly review all information on the specific Embassy's Consular Section website for local procedures and instructions, such as how to make an interview appointment. Consular Websites will also explain any additional procedures for students, exchange visitors and those persons who need an earlier visa interview appointment.

You'll also want to know how long it will take for your nonimmigrant visa to be processed at the Consular Section, after a decision is made by a Consular Officer to issue the visa, and the visa is available for pick-up by you or the courier at the embassy. See the “Wait Times for a Nonimmigrant Visa to be Processed” information, which does not include time required for administrative processing. Some visa applications require additional administrative processing, which requires some additional time. Most administrative processing is resolved within 60 days of application. Applicants are advised when they apply. When administrative processing is required, the timing will vary based on individual circumstances of each case. Therefore, before making inquiries about status of administrative processing, applicants or their representatives will need to wait at least 90 days from the date of interview or submission of supplemental documents, whichever is later."

THE ABOVE COULD BE JUST MY ASSUMPTION BUT YOU SHOULD CONFIRM AND NOT TAKE MY WORD FOR A FACTUAL STATEMENTS. CONFIRM WITH THE EMBASSY WHERE THE INTERVIEW IS BEEN CONDUCTED, AS FOR MY SPOUSE COUNTRY (NIGERIA ADMINISTRATIVE PROCESSING TAKES 6 MONTHS)

Thanks for the helpful information, KDOR! However, I'm aware of the time it takes for Administrative Processing on average. My question was, HOW LONG AFTER OUR AP IS COMPLETE should we expect to receive the visa??? Thank God the Embassy told us that we are now officially OUT of AP!!!! :dance: :dance: I just wanna know how long it takes to send the visa afterwards because all they wrote at the end of their message in reference to his visa was that they will send my fiance's passport (with the visa) & the "mysterious brown envelope" AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. We're just wondering what that means exactly.... does that mean we have to wait a matter of days or weeks? Hope you guys can help! Thanks!! God bless you all!!!
