CR1 Visa post interview question

[Velkro216 0]

Hi guys,

I'm new to this forum, my wife has a visa interview (Super excited!) at the end of January, 2013. I was curious, if she gets approved for a CR1 visa, to enter in the United States, what is the process of passport visa delivery?

I'm aware that the CO holds on to the passport, and stamps the visa. Is the Passport mailed to us or do we pick it up at the Embassy? I assume they will give us this information at the Embassy after the interview, but I need to plan travel times and some other personal affairs.

I have conflicting information, at a few places I have read that the visa can be picked up next day, at others, I have read that the Embassy process time is about 7-10 days and that it is mailed. Do we have a choice how to pick it up?

The Embassy that her interview will be held is in Belgrade, Serbia.

Thanks in advance!

- Kind regards

Depends on the Consulate.

You need someone who went through Belgrade to answer this question.

It depends on the Embassy...

Thanks for the fast response! I appreciate it.

Do you guys think it would be inappropriate to call the Embassy to inquire before the interview to ask what their procedure is? Or should I just be patient?

Thanks again!

- Kind Regards

Try emailing the embassy, they don't usually take kindly to calls, at least mine doesn't. Also, try posting on the region specific forum. You'll get more specific answers that way.
