US B1/B2 Renewal with Interview Waiver at US Consulate Toronto

Application Submitted: Oct 17, 2023
E-mail for Documents Received: Nov 8, 2023
Documents Sent: Nov 9, 2023
Documents Received: Nov 10 2023
Application Received DS-160 Status: Nov 20, 2023
Application Approved DS-160 Status: Dec 9 2023
Visa Issued DS-160 Status: Dec 11, 2023
Expected Delivery: Dec 13, 2023 (Toronto)

Thanks to all that shared their updates previously. In summary, from the date you submit your DS-160 application (after payment), if no interview/additional documentation required, one should expect their application to be completed in 2 months. Out of this your passport will be submitted for a month. Hope this helps, Good luck to all and stay positive!

I was interviewed for a B2 visa on Dec 7, 2023, in the Vancouver Consulate, but my case needs administrative processing. The officer told me that I would receive an email with the DS-5535 form to fill out and send back with some additional documents. I have not received the email yet. Does anyone have any experience with how long it takes to receive the email? Should I email the required documents and ask them to send me the DS-5535 form?

Quick questions, for a B1/B2 visa renewal in Canada Montreal. I got the email instructions send my documents. I sent them but at my own expenses because I didn’t realize that They created a shipping label for me I realized that after I sent them on my own with Canada post. Will that be a problem? Document was sent to Ottawa location. I’m very worry about, document arrived on Sunday 17th of November. Please I need some advice

My passport was delivered on the 5th of December but still I see no update. I sent mine through Canada Post on my own expense as the one provided in the email was not working at the counter.
Hey what is your timeline ? How long after this you got your visa, I’m facing the same issues I sent the documents at my own cost because I didn’t realized the label was already created lol
