Philippines - time between sending missing documents post-interview and issuing visa

[Prof999 0]

Hello, my wife is interviewing at the US embassy in Manila for an IR-1 visa. She has all her documents, but a police certificate from another country where she had previously lived has expired in the last few months (it was only valid for 90 days). We are awaiting delivery of the renewed certificate, but based on our past experience, it will not likely arrive until a couple of weeks AFTER my wife's visa interview. Although she has not traveled back to the country that issued the certificate, we are concerned that she will be issued a 221(g) and asked to send the new certificate to the embassy before the visa is issued.

 

For anyone who has been in this sort of situation with the US embassy in Manila, I would be curious to know how long it took between sending the missing document to the embassy and getting the visa issued. Thank you!
