Gringooooos!!!

Ustedes con novias/novios de Colombia, y ellos viven en la Bogota!

HOW MANY DAYS... is the usual time from the day of the interview to the day of having the Visa en mano?

My fiance lives in Bogota.

So, if the interview for example takes place on Friday, then what day would she have the Visa in hand?

Can she go to the embassy to pick it up? Would that be faster than waiting for them to deliver it?

And,...perhaps you can help with this information, too: She can go immediately to the airport, once she has the visa in hand? si??

Or, is there something else she must do, sign, register, request, wait on,..... cualquier????

All help is appreciated.

I'm just trying to plan ahead.

It's looking bleak for me to be able to break away for both the interview and to wait some unknown amount of days or time for her to have the visa in hand.

I may go for the interview.

I may only go to escort her up to the States.

I may not go for any of this.

Although she has expressed concerns over problems in the immigration at the airport once she lands in Houston (likely port of entry).

I think she has unfounded fears based on rumor and hear-say. I think it's just also that she has NEVER

She's a mature, however young appearing, lady.

She's not got any of the issues that would prevent entry, which is why we go through all these dadgummed procedures and waiting anyway.

Much obliged with any help on any of this. thanks.
