I am trying to loosely plan everything for our journey back to the U.S. I was wondering, after we go through the interview process for my wife's IR-1 visa, does she have to wait the 3 - 4 days for her passport to be visa'd like NIVs, or is she given the packet on the spot and we can head to the U.S. immediately. Don't worry, I am not doing anything stupid, like buying plane tickets before the interview, just trying to get a loose idea.
Is there a wait to get my wife's IR-1 after the interview? |

It typically takes a bit for the consulate/embassy to issue the visa and attach it to the passport. Then they have to mail it which takes a few days.
I don't know of any consulate/embassy that issues the visa and sealed envelope on the same day of the interview (although there might be one).
