Almost 7 weeks from interview until visa in hand --

* 5 weeks 4 days waiting for Israeli police certificate (they didn't tell us we needed it until my husband arrived for his interview)

* Once police certificate received at the consulate, 4 days to process and issue the visa

* 5 days to send it from Jerusalem to Ramallah

Usually, they put male applicants on AP. My wife got her visa right away. She was told by the consular officer that her visa was approved at the end of the interview.

It was 5 wks for us. We just got the visa today :) We had one interview, with no problems.

But at first they put us in AR and told us they had no idea how long it would take. Then my husband asked if he could have his passport back during the wait, in case he needed to travel. Then they replied and said they would expedite our case, and we got it within a week after they said that. Wow! :dance:

:( Well it took 5 months from the time Cairo got our case to get a interview Feb 5th 2007

:( Then he had a home visit 5 months after the interview.

:( Then he had a phone call interview 11 months after the first interview.

:( Then he had the second interview Feb 4th 2008 They said AP was done and he just needed to update his police and medical. That was handed in March 11th 2008

:( Got a e-mail yesterday that said it was in final review.

:crying: ONE YEAR :crying: ONE MONTH :crying: 14 days :crying:
