Good morning VJ!

My question is for those who've interviewed in Addis Ababa (Ethiopia). Once you've passed the interview and they give you a date of when the visa will be ready for pick up. Has anyone gotten theirs sooner/later than the 6 business days?

I know you're able to track the processing of the visa after your interview, but would like to know if anyone has gotten it sooner or later than time date given by the CO.

Amesegnalhu!

Congratulations!!

My husband was approved but needed more documents and once we summited those we were told 2 weeks from that day but it was sooner than that , I think it depends on the embassy and how many visas they are currently processing at the time

October 26 it was issued via ceac and October 31 his visa was ready for pick up

I love my husband ?‍?‍?

We have not had the interview yet. But I was told it's 6 days but it would most likely be done sooner...... so I am praying that he can pick it up before the date given, we don't want the prices to go up on the ticket. lol they're pricey....

But congratulations to you both. And your little girl will be here soon ❤️

I didn't get the tickets till my husband had his visa in hand I was nervous there could be a error of his visa so we waited and spend over 1000$ on both tickets but it also over a week away from the travel date.

I misread your post but good luck to you and your fiancé I hope all goes well for you guys

It's okay, I believe he will pass once he interviews. But thank you so much ?
