Hello all,

We have an interview coming up at the London embassy for our immigration visa. Can someone who has gone through this process recently let me know how long it takes after a successful interview to get our passports back with stamped visas?

thanks,

soolong

During my interview, the CO said I could get my passport back in 5-6 business days. True enough, got mine 5 business days after my interview.

Good luck on your interview. :)

Here's a link showing the most recent delivery times after interviews at the US Embassy in London:

(Scroll all the way down to the last post.) It seems to be an average of 7 calendar days. Our interview is in exactly 2 weeks! Good luck!

You won't get a 'stamped visa' in your passport. It will be printed onto one of the pages. Google images has some good examples if you want to know what it looks like. Your photo will be on it too - so I spent some time yesterday at the photo booth in Tesco perfecting 'the look' that I want for my visa photo since it's going to be in my passport permanently! :rofl:

It won't be stamped until you pass through immigration at your POE.
