Today I am done with my Interview, I was interviewed by a very nice guy who was kind with me in answering his questions.

He gave me a Yellow Slip when he clearly wrote. "We can not issue your visa until you send in the following documents"

1. Letter from the Registry claiming You're single and never married

2 Custody Order/ consent for my children.

That when I get them I send via courier or bring them any time in person.

My questions are:-

1 Are they on the way to deny me or approve my visa?

2 When sending them, should I send them with the passports coz it seems no any other Interview.

3 How long do the take to issue them?

4 Am i put in AP I always hear?

I was given a yellow slip indicating some documents to bring to Nairobi embassy, my question how long does it take to issue the visa once the documents are brought?

Is this the AP members are talking about?

Can they change their mind and deny you yet u have brought what they requested?

I will be grateful for your advice.

Maybe about a week or could be more, depending on what they are inquiring about and if they need to do more checking beyond those documents.

Yes

Yes

I'm assuming they requested these things at your interview? If that is the case you have not been approved yet, so there is no decision to change. When they receive what they asked for and review the documents, they will then render a decision. Yes you can still be denied, but hopefully it is just a matter of getting those missing documents to them in order to get your approval. Yes this is AP , others get AP for further background checks as well. I wish you luck, and hopefully they just need those documents in order to issue the visa. I can relate to the not knowing. my husband was AP for 10 weeks.

** Three topics merged and another without replies removed. PLease only post once on an issue. If you have follow-on questions or an update, reply to the original topic ***

How long it will take will depend on what they asked you to bring, and how long it will take them to review it. Yes, they can absolutely deny you because of what you bring or any other reason.
