Our interview is scheduled for June 20th - Woot!!

After the interview, assuming all goes well and our visa is approved, can my wife come to the US immediately? Or are there other things we have to wait for before she is clear to enter the US?

My boss went through the process with her fiance and after the interview he had to wait for docs to get FedExed to the US and back. Not sure if the same applies to K3 applicants...

BTW, did I mention my wife's interview is scheduled for June 20th - WOOT!!!!!

Your wife may enter the US the same day she takes possession of her passport with visa affixed. Check on your Consulate's policy for getting the passport and visa in the applicant's hand. It can vary from a day to a week or two.

As long as the interview goes ok you can expect to have the passport in a few days depending on how you choose to have it sent to you. Brazil does not give you the passport the same day or allow you to go to pick it up. They do however allow you to do express shipping.
