Hello. Does anybody here know how long do I have to wait for the Us Embassy in Bogotá to process my wife visa? We finished all the process at NVC and all of that, I called them (NVC) and they said that the process is in the Embassy but that was like a month ago.

Since you filed for a CR1/IR1 visa and the case was already completed by the NVC and forwarded to the US embassy in Bogotá, that means they already scheduled your interview, not sure why they didn't give you the date over the phone when they said it was already in Colombia. Call them again and email the embassy as well with your BGT case number and ask them for your interview date because you need to start scheduling the medical appointment and planning your trip to the US embassy for your interview.

The embassy should reply to you with your appointment date and the interview package which can also be found on their web site.

it depends on interview availability... it took about 30 days for us to get ours... and it was for two months out. (from 3/22 to 5/15)... you can call and ask them to expedite but you must have a good reason. job related or something of that nature.
