Hi, my wife has passed her immigrant visa interview at the US embassy in Mumbai. However, it has been a week post-interview and we are still waiting to receive her passport/packet from the embassy. Why in the world does it take so long and how long will it take? She also applied for the SSN to receive from the embassy. Would this be causing the delay?

It doesn't take that long. My interview was on the 9th of May, I picked up my passport on the 11th. SSN doesn't happen now. If you've ticked the box in the DS-230 form, then once she gets through her POE, she'll get her SSN in around three weeks' time.
