there's no exact day/s to receive your visa. it all depends in the immigration. if they will do a background check then it will take longer. but its usually 3 days to a week to get your visa. i got mine 3 days after i got approved. good luck and congratulations on your approval :thumbs:

about booking your flight, personally i think you should wait for your visa first because you don't wana pay additional payment for rescheduling our flight. (thats if you didnt get your visa yet).

dont worry about POE. you'll do fine :yes: just bring the important documents. its always better to have more documents.

I got my visa 3days after the USEM interview. Nobody at USEM but the consular officer can say when a visa can be printed out and be released. The air21 tracking didn't work in my case too. But i did receive a text message from air21 saying that the package was already in transit to the final destination and the on the next day, my visa was delivered.

Definitely, u can book a flight even if u don't have ur visa yet. That's your decision, at your own risk. But I'm sure that the majority would recommend for you to book ur flight once u have ur visa in ur hand so as to avoid the rebooking fee if ur visa gets to u beyond ur flght date.

The questions at the POE are just about your petitioner. U will be asked for the visa packet, your passport with the visa and the CFO sticker.

For K1 POE usually asks when the wedding date is, just give them a date and you're fine.

Godspeed
