Embassy Review : |
My Fiancé's interview went well as she and her 8 year old daughter attended together on October 6, 2015. The consulate told her at the interview she was approved and the VISA should arrive in the Passport in 8 to 10 business days.
I had read not to purchase airline tickets until the VISA is issued. But I found a great price nearly a month before the interview flying from the US to and their tickets to fly home with me 5 days later. I made sure I gave them 13 days past the interview date. But it did include two weekends which counting really only left 8 business days between her interview and our schedule departure for the United States.
I checked the online status at the state department on October 13, and again it indicated the visa status, "Ready"
I sent an email on October 13, inquiring about the courier tracking number I had not received. I called the consulate in Porto Alegre on October 13. Today October 14, I logged in a day before my US departure flight and checked the status, "Administrative Process" Now I will loose $2,000 on airline tickets. I could reschedule and save some money maybe but then I don't know when to reschedule the flights. I could go for just three nights and love on my future wife and daughter but then I have to take time off work I was saving and spend money doing it all. Not sure tonight what my answer is and I don't understand how the status can change from "Ready" to "Administrative Process"
I would hope my phone call inquiry and email that truthfully stated my urgency did not make them mad with me. I understand that the statuses of VISAs do sometimes change before they are delivered. No one is allowed to share much information if you are lucky enough to speak to anyone. |

*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.
