Guys, would you please tell me how long does it take for the US Embassy in London to issue a visa? My passport is with them since May 5 (medical delivered may 4th). Thanks

roughly 3-4 weeks, keep an eye on your case status on CEAC / State department site, you should see your case go from Refused -> AP -> Issued. 

 

Embassy is backlogged due to the medical results coming in late, don't stress and be patient.

It goes from refused to ready actually. If everything is fine AP to Issued takes 1 day.

Thanks, in your opinion, the counting starts from the interview date or medical date?

For weeks have passed, the embassy holds the passports and say nothing clearly about the dispatch date. Any advise or recent experience?
