Passport was shipped to the consulate via CITIC Bank on April 21 and was held up one more day due to the missing one part of the paperwork.

The visa was finally issued on May 10th. We decided to book the plane ticket after the visa was issued (against all recommendations given). The consulate IV visa office was closed from May 13-16 due to an envelope with white powder being found. The passport did not leave the consulate until May 17th.

*Notice about estimates: The estimates are based off averages of other members recent experiences
(documented in their timelines) for the same benefit/petition/application at the same filing location.
Individual results may vary as every case is not always 'average'. Past performance does not necessarily
predict future results. The 'as early as date' may change over time based on current reported processing
times from members. There have historically been cases where a benefit/petition/application processing
briefly slows down or stops and this can not be predicted. Use these dates as reference only and do not
rely on them for planning. As always you should check the USCIS processing times to see if your application
is past due.
