Post Interview - The consular took my passport and said she needed to do some immigration checks.

She took my email address and phone number and said the Embassy would be calling soon.

I asked if i needed a receipt, token or paper in return for my passport and she asked me not to worry.

Its been 2 weeks now!

Im just a bit too confused now! Has this happened to any of you?

The same thing happened to my fiancee at the South African consulate. When I called, they said not to worry because they had it in their system that it was on file. :blink: That if he needed if for travel before the visa was issued he could come and get it.We have also been waiting for about 2 weeks, also.

Thanks Abbas But its been 4 years since our process started (Mine is an F2A visa) and I just don't have all the dates outlined to update the timeline section of this site!

Been away from wifey for 4.5 years now!

Thanks Ochili

Were you guys given an idea/timeline of how long this might take? I hope they come back quickly! What kind of visa were you guys being interviewed for?
