Still haven't received the visa

[mugumogu 18]

Supposedly we were approved. Now they are saying it takes 2-3 weeks to issue the visa. Why, then, does EVERYONE else have it already who interviewed then. People that interviewed after us have it. So it takes 2-3 weeks just to issue ours? What the hell is going on? When I called last week, they said it takes 6 to 8 weeks. My fiancee called this morning and they said 2-3 weeks. Other posts I've read say that it can be in AP up to 6 months, a year, or even over a year! I sent an email to the consulate and just got a vague response about the 2-3 weeks. So what happens next week when there is still no tracking number? Will they then change their response to say that it takes 6-8 weeks and to keep waiting? If I don't hear something soon I will go crazy. I'm ready to drop everything and leave my family and this country & go to Mexico just to put an end to this so we can be together. I can't focus on anything. If anyone has any answers please help!

Usually it takes 1-2 weeks to get visa. If you were approved you should get yours pretty soon. There is a possibility it went to AP.

It is really hard to say, and embassy usually not really good in answering questions.

Hang in there you will get yours. Good luck!

Ok, take it easy. I can understand your frustration. When we were 'approved' for our K1 about 6 years ago they jerked us around too and told us we had to wait (and wait.. and wait...) since their 'computers were down' and we eventually just gave up and left stinky Juarez without the visa and decided to stay in Mexico and forget about the visa and here we are still 6 years later

So if anyone can relate, believe me I can. First of all, which DHL did you guys choose to have the visa sent to? There in Juarez or somewhere else in Mexico? Because that has a lot to do with it. Also, whichever DHL location your wife chose, she should just try to go to the DHL office every couple of days or so in person to check since I have heard that a lot of the time the visa is actually there even if they haven't sent you any kind of notification. Keep the faith.

If you call the Department of State they can tell you if your visa has been printed, sent, etc.

OK so after my ranting yesterday the DHL Waybill number appeared later that afternoon.
