When to schedule CFO Seminar?

[mathjefe 0]

My fiance had her interview today, they kept her passport, and said 2go would contact her so we think she's been approved. Should we schedule the CFO now? Or after she has her visa? Is there a big waitlist?

CFO is quick and easy now that they have the online scheduling, I suggest to wait until she has her passport back that way she can get her sticker the same day and not have to go back.

BTW... congrats!!

Thank you for all your help hank, your website is a huge help.

About the visa; Does she receive a sealed packet? If so, who opens it? And with the holidays approaching, how long will it take, roughly, to get the visa?

Thanks again Hank, you're a lifesaver!

Your fiancee will receive a large, sealed plastic bag, inside will be her passport, a couple pieces of paper with info and "the infamous" DO NOT OPEN envelope. I suggest after taking the passport and sheets of paper out that you leave the DO NOT OPEN envelope inside the plastic bag to protect it, then put it inside the carry-on bag for the flight as it will be needed shortly after arriving at POE.

How long will it take to get the visa? No one knows... serious, embassy states 7-10 days after issuance (and issuance is not the interview, and days are business days)

How close is she to the CFO office? If she goes now before getting the visa, she will have to go back once she has the visa to get her sticker. If she is close to their office, no big deal. Going there to get the sticker is a quick in and out deal. It is just a matter of having to travel there two times.

If traveling there two times is a big hassle for her, then wait for the visa and do it so it can be finished the same day.
