Depends on what stage you're at in the process and on the backlog at your interviewing consulate.

 

Please update your profile and your timeline so people can provide relevant info for your case.

This depends on so many different factors. Consider giving us more information so that we can actually help you.

 

  • Where are you and your spouse from?
  • How long have you been married? Can you prove it? Can other people confirm it?
  • Did you apply for a visa yet? If so, when?
  • Is it just a spouse or are there children involved?
  • Is this the first time the US Citizen is applying for a foreign spouse?
  • Does the US citizen have enough money to sponsor the foreign spouse or is a joint sponsor required?
  • Has the foreign spouse ever been banned from entering the US?

From earlier posts, OP appears to be at the NVC stage, waiting on a civil document to be reviewed, most likely a Taiwanese birth certificate as that was a previously asked question earlier this month.  OP, if you are at the NVC stage, it may take a few more weeks for that part of the process, then the file goes to the consulate/embassy abroad when interviews open up and many of those are backlogged because of COVID.  I suggest that you check out the Taiwan forum to get more advice on how long people are waiting for a spousal visa interview after completing the NVC stage.  Good luck!
