Visa delivery taking too long

[spade 0]

I dont know if this is the right part to post this soif not, feel free to move it.

My visa is taking too long to deliver, im waiting for i think 2weeks now. Aug12 they told me to just deliver the nbi clearance via 2go cause i dont have it. Aug 18 i sent my nbi via 2go to the embassy (2go branch is near the embassy) so probably 1-2days they already received it. I know ill be delayed cus of this so im expecting i will receive it within 2weeks.

Im still waiting, i want to sched a flight this month. I dont want to wait till october

What should i do? Should i wait a few more days or weeks? Should i call the embassy?

I badly need to sched my flight this month.

Unfortunately it's difficult to predict when your visa will be issued. We have seen issued status from 10 business days to some waiting 3-4 weeks if not more. Need a lot more patience. Calling the Embassy this early will probably not get the visa a quicker.

I saw some people here got their visa within 6days.

Is it possible that i can get mine within 6days too if i brought my nbi or i have all the docs needed?

Should i really wait this long if i miss at least 1 document they need? Well i know ill be delayed when i didnt brought my nbi but i just wanna know if this is natural to wait this long?

Like Greenbaum already said, we cannot predict when your visa will be issued. It is unwise to schedule your flight if you dont have your visa yet. If you call the embassy, they will tell you that they will start processing your visa 5 days after they receive your NBI Clearance. From that point, its 3-4 weeks or however long the embassy needs to process it. At this point, the only thing you can control is your patience. You're almost done, just be patient a little longer.

Too long? Not really.

What should you do? Be patient.

When there are delays, such as not having the required documents at the interview, then having to deliver them later through 2GO, it can take WEEKS after the embassy receives the documents to review the case file and then finally issue the visa. Weekends and holidays don't count as the embassy isn't open then.

So relax, be patient, the visa will arrive when it arrives, nothing else you can do about it.

There ya are... IF. If you had brought everything that was required in the embassy instructions letter, it may only have taken two weeks for your visa to be issued.

A missing document always causes weeks of delay... weeks.

The fastest way to get them the NBI is to deliver it the way they tell you to. Any other way will buck the system and will cause delays, even if you save a day or two bringing it there yourself instead of using 2Go.

The average time from interview to visa seems to be 2 weeks (all papers presented at interview, which is not your case). But that can vary from 3 days to 3 months for seemingly no apparent reason. We got ours in 13 calendar days, right about on the mark for the average. You need to do what they want to get the NBI to them and then wait some extra time for the NBI to get into your file.

There is really nothing else you can do to shorten the time. This is the shortest path to visa in hand.
