Tracking Visa once mailed from Embassy

[OKC_German 3]

Is there a way to track your Visa after the interview is complete and they mail it? We are working with the U.S. Consulate in Frankfurt, Germany if anyone has any experience with them. Just wondering if they issue a tracking number?

We tried asking for an expedite, or overnight delivery. We even offered to pay the extra fees involved, but they would not do it. They said they are required to mail it standard postage because of insurance reasons. Sounds like a bunch of ####### to me since you can still get insurance and signatures for an overnight package as well.

We got no tracking number - Ours came 4 days later though (signature required) and the visa was approved on a Friday (received on next Tuesday). Frankfurt is usually very efficient.

Know of some folks that went and picked it up - but they lived in the Frankfurt area.

Thanks! I'll look into the picking the Visa up part. That might be an option as well.
