London interview timeframe

[mattj74 1]

Hi

We have approved I-130, filled in DS-260 and got police certificate. Medical appt is on Tuesday. We'll be sending in the application for readiness hopefully within the coming weeks/month to state we're ready for an interview appt at London embassy.

I'm trying to get a rough idea of the wait time from sending the application for readiness so I can get an idea if it's 1 week or 1 month or 1 quarter or however long the wait might be for the visa (spousal) at the embassy. Anyone have fairly recent experience of this?

Thanks

You could hear from the embassy in 1-3 weeks. Then the interview would be 2-4 weeks from the letter. So what's that? 3 to 7 weeks. I wouldn't count on 3 weeks.

I agree with Nich-Nick.

Also you will not get the visa issued on the day of the interview, that is up to an additional 30 day processing time from the day of the interview IIRC. If you go through people's timelines it is usually much quicker, but there will always be exceptions.
