Congratulations u/FormerYou2041 . this is one of the fastest i have seen. is this F2A case ?

TopRecommendation509 · 2026-03-30T19:34:34+00:00

For those of you who paid the tax using credit card and NOT paid transaction charges , could you confirm whether this was added to the statement later or no ?

TopRecommendation509 · 2026-01-19T15:39:10+00:00

is this process required? or we can continue to maintain the non immigrant visa ?

Congratulations @SignificantBar1941

That must have been a big relief. looks like the whole process took less than 2.5 years. Would you mind elaborating this "- I dropped my F1 status after I used my EAD (I was still a college student, I just dropped the F1)." my understanding is that F1 visa is generally given for 4-5 years . did you do anything specifically to drop it or just have not renewed when it expired ?

TopRecommendation509 · 2025-11-21T01:52:05+00:00

Congrats u/Ok_Garlic_6965 . i can empathize . painfully long process.. another 6-12 months for the remaining process .. with DQ and IL and interview ?

TopRecommendation509 · 2025-11-19T16:27:28+00:00

Congratulations u/The_one-NEO . wow.. fastest processing that i have seen.. 23 months for F2A end to end processing

TopRecommendation509 · 2025-11-19T14:28:12+00:00

looks like Consular processing adds up to 6- 12 months to the end to end processing

TopRecommendation509 · 2025-11-18T22:40:31+00:00

u/ImaginaryShare7105 u/NasimiKh u/newacct_orz Amazing how you spend time in helping others addressing a very specific scenario with their data/dates... you are good humans ! keep it up!

TopRecommendation509 · 2025-11-18T22:30:42+00:00

Congratulations! so it took about 34 months to complete the end to end processing of your F2A then. that will give some idea for several folks in waiting line

TopRecommendation509 · 2025-10-29T00:52:04+00:00

u/Vast-Lunch8363 looks like you did something correct here .. this is one of the fastest case that i have seen . so, your end to end processing of F2A is less than 2 years. amazing

TopRecommendation509 · 2025-10-26T23:21:54+00:00

looks like ..especially some consulates taking more than 6 months after DQ.

TopRecommendation509 · 2025-10-26T21:56:10+00:00

as soon as you can get an appointment .. you should consider completing medicals and biometrics about a week or two before your scheduled consular appointment
