Hi guys,
I am in the Canada forum, and got my K1 in Canada, but I am Russian, and my son is in Russia and getting his K2 visa in Moscow.
Does anybody know, how long it takes to get the passport with the visa back after the interview??? He is in St Petersburg, so he won't be waiting in Moscow, but the visa will be shipped to St Pete. i just want t oget him a ticket in advance.

There is always a risk getting the ticket before you have the visa. If something is missing you could get a 221-G. He could end up in Administrative Review. Anything can happen.

However usually the visas are sent out about 48 hours after the interview and I would say 2-3 days to get to Petersburgh. Figure 5 days and add some for good measure. Maybe no less than a week after the interview.

Thank you very much Turboguy. Yes, there is always a risk... Hope he will be fine, as my visa is already approved, and he is just K2 and he is not 18 y.o. yet.
Good luck to you! I know you've been waiting for a long time, I am glad for you that your AR is over!!!
