waiting for my visa at DHL, anyone else?

[imports4me 0]

Hello all,

My name is Mike and my fiance (us citizen) have been going through the K1 visa process for almost a year now. finally it is done and i was approved at my interview in montreal last tuesday march 22. I have been looking on the visa site for tracking numbers but nothing has came up yet. im getting alittle worried. Is anyone else still waiting?

I never knew or even heard of a site like this until yesterday, this site is amazing and i wish i knew about it from day one.. there were alot of questions and waiting periods inwhich we did not know and just waited...i only knew about this site from typing in "how long is will it take my visa to get to dhl from montreal" i didn't even think it would work and it lead me to this.

i read a few of the posts looking for answers and the feedback is great. im sorry if i am writing in the wrong section as well. i do have a few questions if anyone can help.

1. its been a full week since my interview (4 business days) is this normal or long? do you see the tracking number first then a few days later seeing that it changes to ready to pick up?

2. they never gave me back my original copies of my immergration papers inwhich i would back back. will that also be in this pacakge?

3. i was sure they lady that interviewed me said i was approved and gave me 3 papers and told me to read them over. when i went out to the desk before leaving the girl gave me another piece of paper. One of them was a Welcome to the states letter. they would give me that unless i was approved right? the thing that is odd is the interview lady also gave me a paper for completing your case via mail. which gives you the steps to send back required documents. but she never mentioned anything about needing more documents. im thinking that this paper is a "just in case".

well, i would just like to say thank you in advance. this long road of ours has finally come to an end once i recieve this package from dhl.

Mike

I have my interview coming up very soon and I have been reading about this as well since I'm trying to estimate when I will be crossing.

In my reading I have discovered there seems to be no rhyme or reason to the dhl shipping.

Some people have got their passports back in a few days alot of others waited a couple of weeks.

So don't panic yet, unfortunately you are one of the lucky ones who got theirs in a couple days =(

I interviewed on March 8th (also a Tuesday) and my waybill number didn't show up on the site until the following Wednesday. One of the papers you received should be DHL instructions, and it has a handwritten note at the top that says to wait about 6 - 7 business days for the waybill to appear.

Some people are lucky to get their passports earlier than that, but I think 6 - 7 business days is more the norm.

You should expect to see your waybill number in the next couple of days. The consulate sent me an email when DHL picked it up, as well.

Congrats on your approval!

I was on the 22nd. can you let me know when you get it and i will do the same to you. im anxious for this visa as im sure you are too. if only she didn't say 3 days and said like a month i wouldnt be waiting for the status update daily.

thanks

I am also eager to see you guys receive your visas tomorrow!! Suggesting 3 days and then not delivering is really not nice!

Today is tuesday morning and still nothing yet. no update or anything. anyone one else who got their interviews around the march 22 date and got theirs or still waiting.

also for those who got theirs in the past, what time did your update show up on the visa website?
