Once approved during Interview, how long are they taking to send out the visa?

Thanks!

It's different from embassy to embassy and case to case. Everything from 2 weeks to a little more than that.

Hard to say with Manila, it can be in as little as 5 business days to 6 weeks, you can track the progress online and see when it is delivered to 2go, you will get an e-mail also when its done

On average about 3 to 5 days, unless you do a pick up at Mall Of Asia....

It's difficult for anyone to predict when you will receive your visa. We are in normal times and we are seeing 5 to 10 business days. But, we have seen upwards of 30 days to 6 months for some.

Do not finalize arrangements for travel to the United States, dispose of properties, or resign from your job until a visa has been issued and delivered to you.

Follow the twisting arrow in my signature below where you can get the instructions to track the processing and delivery of your visa.

According to the embassy instructions letter (issuance is not the interview date): Delivery should be within two weeks from your visa issuance.

Update: i received my visa packet today morning in our province here in mindanao. So that would make it 4 business days after the interview...

Goodluck.

Oh and there seems to be a cut on the envelope. Inside the plastic packet.. I guess this should be okay. Its a staight cut ..

Don't talk about "the cut". That topic is a HOT potato.

Congrats.

Remember, no one can predict when you will receive your visa. It can be 2 to 10 business days normally but we have seen sometimes 3-6 months. Don't book flights till your visa is in hand.

Keep the DO NOT OPEN ENVELOPE protected so it doesn't tear. They do tend to start tearing along the edge from the cut. We kept ours wrapped tightly in the original plastic bag, then taped it and put it in our carry-on bag.
