Hello All,

 

So my future wife and her son had their medical exam on 2/1 and their interview on 2/6. The interview went well they even told her she was approved but just needed to bring in her medical exam because it was not ready until 2/8.

 

The medical exam was turned in to the US embassy on 2/9 how long will it take for the status to change to issued?

 

Anyone have experience with this

 

 

11/21/20: I-129F packet shipped via USPS

11/25/20: I-129F delivered to Dallas Lockbox (Lewisville)

11/27/20: Backdated I-129F "received date"

2/23/21: I-129F fee charged to bank account

2/25/21: Text alert NOA1 Receipt/Case Number

3/3/21 :  Received NOA1 Letter in the mail

Can’t say about Cuba specifically.  What did  the CO say?

 

Typically 10 working days until the visa and passport are ready for pickup or delivery.

The CO said once the medical exam is turned in visa issued and usually ready between 6-10 days.

Then I would say 2-3 calendar weeks since there is a U.S. holiday coming up.
