Save enough money for this trip! When I say Israel is expensive, I really mean it. And I am myself from California. 😉

Well...we were planning to spent 2 weeks in Israel as tourists too! But it's really exhausting to live in ambiguity without ANY information. You just don't know how much "extra time" you will have to wait. Days, weeks, months? Not to mention that Tel Aviv is one of the most expensive cities worldwide. We wouldn't mind if they told us right away that it would take 1 month, so we could make appropriate plans. But they told us it would take a couple of days..And no, no one explained why it took so long. It was also very upsetting to see other people getting their passports back within days while we were waiting for weeks.

The medical examination in Jerusalem is scheduled 2 weeks before interview. But we chose an approved doctor in Bethlehem who does same-day results. So our medical exam was on November 7th, interview in Jerusalem November 8. BUT My fiancé has still not received his passport back. The Jerusalem embassy is super weird. People who had interviews after us received their passports within DAYS. But we are stuck here for almost a month now. It will be 4 weeks on Tuesday since the interview day. The interview itself went well, visa was approved and no additional documents were requested. The consular officer told my fiancé that his passport will be returned in a couple of days. But here we are. They don't reply to emails or phone calls. So anyone considering a transfer to Jerusalem should keep that in mind. It's super random. Our case was the simplest and we did not get into AP. No previous marriages, no children, no military background or T.A.L. related issues. So plan accordingly and find a reliable place to stay. We had to move 4 times and cancel our flights.
