...in regards to when my fiancé can expect to pick up his passport? This is the status now on USTravelDocs.

Thank you!!

The total amount of days from the date I mailed in our K1 Visa application to the day my fiancé stepped foot into the USA:

1 year, 3 months and 8 days.

The amount of days from the date we mailed in our AOS to the date everything was approved (after 3 RFEs):

7 months & 5 days

Which makes our journey a total of:

2 years, 3 months, and 8 days

Glad you posted this question. I was about to ask the same thing. My fiance's visa just changed to ISSUED.

Hopefully someone on here can give us a rough estimate on the timeframe. Is he picking up in Santiago?

Hello there,

Junior and I had our interview on Wednesday April 1st. Then on Monday April 6th thats what the US travel doc said. It meant that his passport was received from Santo Domingo and has arrived to Santiago (at the location we chose to pick it up from). Then on the Wednesday April 8th the status changed to "Passport is ready for pickup". Sooooo tell him to get packing!!!! Congratulations the passport will be ready really soon!

His just changed to Issued on CEAC, hoping on US traveldocs it changes to this by the end of the day.

I'm estimating his should be ready for pickup withiin 4days.

I'm so happy you are finally getting done with this part!

The finish line is so close.
