My brother F2B just received his interview letter. He went for medical and they said they don't give a sealed envelope anymore but instead they transfer it electronically to the embassy. Anyone been through this?

He was DQ July 12

Congratulations to your brother!!

All medicals from Cairo are now being transferred electronically straight to the embassy so all he has to do is go get the medical done and confirm with the doctor or nurse that they will be sending it and that's it.

My husband went to the hospital twice just to confirm that there are not giving out any sealed envelopes after he did his medical.

Thanks a lot. Maybe the moderators should add this info to consulate review on Visa journey to help people in the future.

Passed interview. Visa approved and issued. How long does it take to pickup passport from Aramex? It's been a week and there's no status update.

Yay! Congrats!!!! They didn’t put you in Admin processing? That’s great, there is hope for us all! 
Keep us updated on when you receive your passport please, I have no idea how long it takes.

It took my husband around 3-4 days from when he got the approval to when he picked it up. Status was changed to issued the next day I believe or the 2nd day. It wasn't that long for him overall. Hope that helps!

You should definitely give aramax a call, they may have your contact info wrong or don't have time to send you the message, plus it does not hurt to ask anyway.

Mind telling us how the interview went?

Yupp!

my husbands interview went smoothly, he was there for a total of 3&1/2 hours and the lady officer he had asked him 4 questions without asking to see any extra documents (like photos, messages, etc).

question were:

Was he ever married before

Was I ever married before

What is his job in Cairo currently

why does he want to leave

 

He got approved and said as long as you are confident and are telling the truth you have nothing to worry about.

Hope that helps!

How about mine sir how long is gonna take look What they send me after I send them a massage to the nvc 

 

NVC received all the requested documentation for this immigrant visa case. The application is now in the queue awaiting an interview appointment overseas, where a consular officer will adjudicate the applicant's visa application.   The U.S. Embassy/Consulate tells us what dates they are holding interviews, and NVC fills these appointments as the cases become documentarily qualified. NVC schedules appointments one month in advance, but we cannot predict when an interview appointment will be available.
