Hello all,
My fiancee is a Zimbabwe citizen, but had her interview in Johannesburg, South Africa. She was issued a 221g requesting police clearance and they kept her passport. She submitted her police clearance on April 5th, thinking it would take maybe 4-6 weeks or so. But as of June 1st we still have no updates other than "they received it and are reviewing it".
Her visitor passport stamps expire on June 20th. Should she try to get her passport back in order to renew the stamp again/go back to Zimbabwe and wait there, or should we just let it expire if it takes another 3+ weeks? I'm not sure if that will affect her ability to travel if she overstays the stamp, but I'm also worried if she asks for it back, we'll be in for another several months wait when she submits it again.
