Hi everyone had my interview on 30th August was given the 221 g form requesting more info on the joint sponsor. It should get there tuesday next week, does anyone know what kind of timeframe Im looking at ? I have already booked two one way flights for myself and daughter flying to US on the 24th october and have my wedding booked for october 31st with the hotel. It will be a dam shame if I have to cancel it all out as its all non refundable or cant change name on tickets even if I had to sell them, I guess the worst would happen is loose all the money and rebook everything. Total chaos though, not even having time to hand in notice to work, or my daughters high school, This has all been a frustrating process indeed but we keep moving along, just wondering if anyone is experiencing this at all

There is no way of knowing how long it will take. Each case is different. For the benefit of others as this seems to happen too often, NEVER MAKE TRAVEL/WEDDING PLANS UNTIL YOU HAVE YOUR PASSPORT WITH VISA IN YOUR HAND!!!

It depends on what is meant by "more info" that you need to send. If it's just a quick thing like his proof of citizenship or LPR status, it could be in and out in no time. If it's a whole tax return that needs to be scrutinised then it could take longer. Also depends how busy the embassy is. October 10 is a holiday too which will slow everything down. There's no way of knowing, really.

I agree with the previous poster that it is not wise to book anything or make financial commitments until you have the actual visa in your hand. But it's too late for that now. Did you not resign from work when you bought the ticket? If you knew that was the date you were intending to leave?

thanks everyone, booked all of this quite a while ago and obviously dont need to hand notice in for work until 4 weeks before. So might as well be pessimistic that I WILL have to loose out, as long as I get to be with the man I love eventually thats all I care about. So on with the struggle , to be continued :)
