Estimated Delivery time after Issued

[Gary137 7]

Hello everyone,

 

After receiving a 221(g) at my interview on August 17th and going through two weeks of administrative, my visa switched to “Issued” first thing on Thursday morning (September 3rd). It is of course, a major relief however I have not yet received any notification of a tracking number from the courier service. Does anyone have any idea how long after being issued does this usually occur?
 

thanks in advance

They are often sent out in batches so you just have to sit tight but should be within days

In London, I have never noticed “batches” as mentioned by the member from Germany. Most of the time, the courier notification will follow “issued” by 2 days and delivery will be the next day.  With yours spanning the weekend, best guess will probably be a Monday or Tuesday delivery. Monday is also Labor Day holiday for the embassy, but that shouldn’t affect the UK courier who has the passport by now.

I received my visa two weeks ago. Interview Monday, Wed changed to AP, 2 hours later changed to Issued, received passport on Friday. Also I had mine delivered to my home and never received a tracking number email or text. It just arrived. I’d guess your passport will be with you very soon.

Thanks for the response, fingers crossed mine arrives as promptly as yours
