| How
long we should expect to wait after
an application has been approved until
the visa is issued? |
Question:
I am an American married to a Canadian and we just got our approval letter
yesterday and it says we have to wait to be contacted about his
fingerprints.
I know very little about the immigration process and was wondering if anyone
knows how long we should expect to wait after an application has been
approved until the visa is issued?
Answer:
If you are referring to the approval notice for the I-130,
you will probably have your immigrant visa interview
scheduled at the U.S. consulate in Montreal in 4 to 6
months. If all goes well, you will receive the immigrant
visa right after the interview.
The fact that you say that the approval notice refers to
fingerprints bothers me a little. Are you perhaps going
through the process for the American to immigrate to
Canada?
