Visa in hand. I actually tracked my passport arriving to my city and went to DHL right away. I did not receive an email about it until 40 minutes after. If I waited for the email I wouldn’t have made it on time and had to go the next day. @amdublin14 it still shows Issued on ceac. 

 

Thanks for that update. So excited for you, congrats on getting it so quickly!!! I know Dublin won't be as fast, but happy all of us are having things move along. :)

May I ask how come Dublin isn’t that fast? I always thought countries in europe would be efficient and fast in every stage.. indeed though, it looks like everyone is getting to the finish line :)

Honestly, I wish I knew the answer! Compared to London (not "European", but another major city), Dublin processes far fewer cases, scheduling takes longer, and reviews aren't great. The Dublin embassy is somewhat small, and recently developed a reputation for rude officers. Some blame it on Dublin not having a US ambassador (though someone just got selected by the Trump admin), but from what I can tell, things just move slowly. I know another Dublin user said she's been waiting 1 week+ and her visa hasn't been issued yet, and from older timelines it seems like it can take up to 2 weeks.

Shocking to hear honestly! Irish people are so nice I’ve got a couple friends and your accent is funny and cute hehe ! When did u have your interview? 2 weeks isn’t that bad either. I’ve got my passport back after only 2 days here in Bogota but met someone who didn’t get it back for a month! 2 weeks will give you time to pack your stuff nice and smoothly and say goodbye to friends and family, I have my husband here rushing me because he bought me a flight so fast without telling me !

My husband is here. He came on Saturday and POE was Dallas and was very fast, I was shocked. He met with CBP and was done in 15 minutes. 

Thank you VJers, you guys have been so tremendously helpful throughout this journey. Now we wait for his documents to come in.

God bless everyone. and good luck

I know, it's just people at the embassy apparently getting a hard time. Ah, my spouse is the Irish citizen, interview is on Oct 2, just 11 days to go! We honestly don't need the two weeks haha, ready to book a flight as soon as passport is in hand.

 

That's so funny, hopefully you can get everything in order before you leave, tomorrow isn't it? Have a safe flight & welcome to the US!

@SMOM @girlonfire Sorry for yet more questions, but did you have any issues with your medical from Mater? Or hiccups with it during the interview?

 

We found one mistake with ours, not sure how to proceed. On the copy of the vaccination record, they checked the "K Visa applicant voluntarily completed vaccination requirements" NOT "Immigrant Visa or Parolee...."

 

Spouse will have to ring the hospital tomorrow and see if they can correct this, but idk how they will when the sealed envelope they gave us contains the original record. Also, we have no way of knowing if there is indeed an expiration date on the medical results, since they're sealed. Curious about that only because a previous user said he got AP for not having an expiration date on his medical.
