hi, everyone.

I would like to know if how long does it takes when i get to apply a tourist visa? my plane ticket is being paid off without applying yet a tourist visa to U.S.A. I need more advices in this matter. THANKS. God bless you.

You are not suppose to buy tickets until you have visa in hand. Hope you can get your money back just in case. 

 

You can have your interview fast or in few weeks. Depending on how it looks like in your embassy. Then if you're approved, which is not 100%, you might get your visa few days after the interview. Or few weeks if you get put in administrative processing. No one will tell you how long you'll wait.

Having purchased plane tickets will not increase your chance of a visa approval.

 

It is advised not to make any travel purchases that can't be refunding before the visa is in your hand.

 

What country are you from?

Not an obvious positive.

i suppose to get a fiancee  visa but we think it takes more longer and since we gonna get married on april so i think it shouldn't be fiancee visa anymore but instead a spouse visa. and My fiance wants me to fly back with him to America after the wedding so we have no other choice that we may think best like but to get a tourist visa. And Praying that God has our back for all the plans that we are getting through.

Does the tourist visa couldn't give me a chance or some priviledge to get avail the tour with my husband as our honeymoon period there?

I doubt God will look too kindly on this one.

I've read that the "fiancee" visa is a faster track than the marriage visa.  Maybe look into that option instead.  

 

Ditto the people who discourage entering on a tourist visa with the intent to marry.
