How long does it take to process your application since they have received it at the Cairo visa office until they ask for the passport !!!

You must keep bugging them. Once it passes the "estimated time", its your right to be a bother!
I once read a woman... also dealing with Egypt ... and they actually "Forgot/ misplaced" her application. Also, for sponsorship. She kept on top of them, and eventually they apologized that they had "misplaced" it.. and they completed the application right away.

I would say it depends of your application and the agent. Here, it took 4 months to sponsor my husband.

omo_lylah, still no news? That's very strange!

I have realized there are many applications are in process since 24 November 2016 maybe they wait security results as one batch together so they stopped requesting passports until do what they have already .
